Abstract :
Creativity has become an important asset in today´s fast changing environment. It is especially important in design, which demands innovative solutions for every project. We believe that creativity can and should be encouraged in work groups. We propose a framework for supporting creativity in problem solving. Through the use of problem, domain and user models and information retrieval and agent technology, we hope to support creative cooperative work.
