Attribute Dependency

Systematic Inventive Thinking

• Identify variables that might have dependencies worth investigating (or creating).

• Assign variables to columns and rows• Check on existing dependencies (mark

with 0)• Create new dependencies for the ones

marked with 0. Do reality check; replace 0 by 1.

• Visualize the new dependency:• What are the potential benefits,

markets and values?• Who would want it? Why would people

find it valuable?• How can it help to address a particular

challenge? • Is it feasible?
