Abstract: Systems and methods for generation and use of intellectual-property (IP) landscaping platform architectures are disclosed. A landscaping component may be utilized to produce refined clusters of IP assets using user seeded searches in varying areas of interest, such as, for example, target technical fields, targeted publications, targeted products, and/or competitor entity portfolios. The landscaping component may be further utilized to produce an interactive graphical element including a spatial representation of the clusters of IP assets. The interactive graphical element may include various functionalities and/or information associated with the clusters of IP assets.

Abstract: A ladder suspension bracket releasably receives and suspends a portable ladder for use, storage, and transportation if on a vehicle (FIG. 1, FIG. 7) comprising of a receiving bracket (FIG. 4, or FIG. 8) and a lower distance maintenance bracket (FIG. 5, or FIG. 9) optionally pivotable (45, 46) to hold step ladder substantially away from the ascension surface (49) or horizontal (5) as required for the ladder type. Bracket is configured such that ladder can easily be released of suspension mode (FIG. 7, FIG. 2) and used independent of this mounted position (FIG. 3). In addition to the claim of such a bracket a ladder having intentional configuration (2) to provide for suspension is also claimed, as is the combination thereof.
