Abstract :
In competitive markets product innovation becomes a major issue for companies. Many creativity techniques have been proposed over time to improve creativity.In this paper, we discuss a platform and a specific reasoning approach to support product innovation. This reasoning approach is based on a specific form of heuristic (or almost correct) reasoning, most instances rely on analogies.
