Dissertation presented as the partial requirement for obtaining a Master's degree in Information Management, specialization in Information Systems and Technologies Management
Nowadays, the use of creativity in business has been increasing drastically because it is important for the market to come up with new ways to find answers to the problems proposed by the users. There are several different creativity techniques that can be used in different contexts. One of the most important techniques is the SCAMPER technique, which is based in reorganizing, modifying, adding and eliminating information. An automated system will provide answers and solutions to creativity problems and contribute to minimize the cost of innovation in the companies. For that reason businesses will be able and willing to continue to use creativity when innovating. The aim of this thesis is therefore to design an architecture system for a creative information system based on an automated system that relies on the SCAMPER creativity technique.
