Abstract: Introduced here are Internet monitoring platforms configured to define, monitor, and assess the boundary of a private network associated with a client. By monitoring the entire Internet, a private network, and relationships between these networks, an Internet monitoring platform can discover changes in the boundary of the private network that is defined by those assets on the private network capable of interfacing with a public network, such as the Internet. The Internet monitoring platform may, in response to discovering the boundary of the private network has experienced a change, identify an appropriate remediation action by mapping the change to a technological issue, a relevant business relationship, etc. For example.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for avoiding duplication of effort in drafting documents and, in particular, to a system and method for avoiding duplication of effort in preparing patent related submissions. The method is implemented on a computer infrastructure comprises storing disclosure information related to non-public proprietary innovation and receiving terms associated with an innovation. The method further comprises matching the terms with the stored disclosure information and providing an alert to a user that certain of the terms overlap with the stored disclosure information.

Abstract: A computer-implemented apparatus and method for performing patent portfolio analysis. The patent portfolio analysis apparatus and method clusters a group of patents based upon one or more techniques. The clustering techniques include linguistic clustering techniques (e.g., eigenvector analysis), claim meaning, and patent classification techniques. Different aspects of the clusters are analyzed, including financial, claim breadth, and assignee patent comparisons. Moreover, patents and/or their clusters are linked to the Internet in order to determine what products might be covered by the claims of the patents or whether materials on the Internet might render patent claims invalid.

Abstract: The present invention is related to patent-related tools, and methodologies involving those tools, for assisting in all stages of research and development (R&D) projects. The IPAM server may be used in conjunction with the tools and methodologies to aid in R&D projects. These tools or methods include, but are not limited to, a topographic map, a top company table, a top inventor table, a inventors by company table, a features grouping, a technology classification, a Standard Industrial Codes (SIC) classification, a patent citation tree, a patent count/year, an application count/year, a nested patent citation tree, a product/patent/revenue table, a patent/months to issue chart, and a document/annotation chart.

Abstract: A computer-enabled system, method, and medium is provided to support, e.g., analyzing intellectual property documents by assigning attributes to the documents. The present invention is suitable for use by intellectual property professionals and is flexible to support development and use of customized attribute types and attributes. Optionally, a group of intellectual property documents can be divided into projects, which can be ingested including assigning attributes. Optionally, the attributes can be used to filter information included in e.g., searches, and/or reports.

Abstract: Operator system algorithm with ability to aid strategic decision-making. Multi-Term Frequency analysis has many embodiments. It has the capability of recursiveness and feedback, and with the capacity to self-modify its operators, as well as having the capability to follow externally set rules, as contained in an axiom set, for example, or as custom imposed by a user. Operator system is set up in the context of basic axioms of a particular field of application, which direct to an extent what the operators do. A preferred embodiment extensively dealt with shows its application as a decision aid over the field of patents and technical literature, helping to organize in a productive manner a mass of data, with useful scores and indices as output.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products facilitate user compliance with laws that pertain to a regulated activity in each of a plurality of legal jurisdictions. A user selects, via a user interface in communication with a data processing system, a component that relates to an aspect of the regulated activity. A user also selects, via a user interface in communication with the data processing system, first and second legal jurisdictions from the plurality of legal jurisdictions. In response to the user selections, elements of the selected component that are unique and common to the first and second legal jurisdictions are displayed. Each displayed element is a legal requirement associated with the regulated activity as defined by laws of a respective legal jurisdiction.
