Dimension time cost model
The dimension time cost model (DTC) is a creative problem-solving technique that analyzes a problem by maximizing its possible characteristics.[1][2] Dimension can also encompass other physical characteristics such as temperature, brightness, mass, etc. The DTC model encouragaes creativity by reviewing a system at its potential minimal and maximal points.[3]
The approach is based on the theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ).
| Limits | Real value | How does the solution look? | Possible solution principle | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D | 0 | |||
| D | ∞ | |||
| T | 0 | |||
| T | ∞ | |||
| C | 0 | |||
| C | ∞ |
