Abstract
In this study, we focus on breakthroughs and study the elements that catalyze breakthroughs using idea-space systems analysis (ISSA). ISSA is analytical method, which combines degree of idea divergence and idea systems architecture. Examining the idea creation history, the results using ISSA, it shows that the degree of idea divergence would increase in cases where ideas are generated through more movements of viewpoints. Additionally, the results indicate that the changing of the viewpoints are required to catalyze breakthroughs.
