A methodology, tool set, knowledge base, and model-based technology for generating innovative ideas and solutions for problem solving; a systematic methodology to invent or to innovate technologies. It is systematic and based on 39 characteristics or parameters of technological systems and the 40 principles of invention obtained by reviewing thousands of patents by experts in technological innovation. It is an approach to the optimization of a product or solution of an engineering problem that assumes there is a pattern -a set of quasi-natural laws- to the evolution of products. 1.Weight of the moving object. 2.
