264 ◾ Design Science Research Methods and Patterns
3. Vaishnavi et al. (1997) designed the smart object paradigm in a hierar-
chal manner separating its logical and architectural views, and separating the
paradigm from its instantiation; also see “An Example of ICT Design Science
Research” in Chapter 2, “Pattern Usage in the Development of the Smart
Object Paradigm” in Chapter 6, and Chapter 13, p. 312.
Connection to TRIZ Inventive Principles
is existing DSR pattern (Vaishnavi and Kuechler 2007) yet again can be con-
