Patent number: 11366881Abstract: Systems and methods for entitlement tracking and control with blockchain technology are provided. A server node may receive usage information indicating usage of a licensed component by a remote device. The server node may generate a datablock that includes the usage information and append the datablock to a blockchain. The server node may acquire, from the blockchain, a license smart contract. The license smart contract may include control logic to control access to the license component. The server node may control access to the license component by the remote device based on the usage information and the control logic.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2020Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: ACCENTURE GLOBAL SOLUTIONS LIMITEDInventors: Kevin Matthew Mintz, Arthur R. Leinen, III, Melanie Jean Cutlan, Richard Thomas Meszaros

Patent number: 10176308Abstract: A server node may receive a token creation message including an authorization parameter. The server node may acquire, from a blockchain synchronized across a plurality of network nodes, a token factory in response to receipt of the token creation message. The token factory may include token factory logic configured to generate an authorization token based on the authorization parameter. The server node may generate, based on execution of the token factory logic with the token creation parameter, the authorization token. The authorization token may include authorization logic configured to validate an access event corresponding to an executable component configured on a remote device. The server node may append a datablock to the blockchain. The datablock may include the authorization token. The server node may control access to the executable component configured on the remote device by execution of the authorization token included in the blockchain.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2018Date of Patent: January 8, 2019Assignee: ACCENTURE GLOBAL SOLUTIONS LIMITEDInventors: Kevin Matthew Mintz, Arthur R.

Publication number: 20180314809Abstract: A server node may receive a license creation message including a license creation parameter. The server node may acquire, from a blockchain, a license factory smart contract in response to receipt of the license creation message. The license factory smart contract may include license factory logic executable to generate a license smart contract. The server node may generate, based on the license creation parameter and execution of the licensing factory logic, the license smart contract. The license smart contract may include logic executable to validate an access event corresponding to a licensed component configured on a remote device. The server node may append a datablock to the blockchain. The datablock may include the license smart contract. The server node may synchronize the blockchain across a plurality of network nodes. The server node may control access to the licensed component configured on the remote device by execution of the licensing logic.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 19, 2018Publication date: November 1, 2018Applicant: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Kevin Matthew Mintz, Arthur R.
