Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer system, computer program product and computer implemented method for automatically calculating translation costs based upon translation memory analysis. This involves receiving an original document and a source-target language pair, comparing the original document with previously translated text or the translation memory database corresponding to the source-target language pair and computing a modified word count reflecting the degree of overlap between the original document and the previously translated text based on the comparison. Further, a per word translation rate corresponding to the source-target language pair is identified in a viewable database and a modified translation cost is calculated from the per translation rate and the modified word count.

Abstract: The present invention relates to computer systems for estimating foreign filing costs, in particular, to a computer-implemented system for generating country-specific fees. The computer system is designed to receive an industrial property (IP) identifier, such as a patent number, generate IP statistics corresponding to the IP identifier, such as the number of words and pages in a patent specification, generate a set of selected countries and, for every selected country; identify a selected fee rule corresponding to that country and apply the selected fee rule to the IP statistics to calculate a country-specific fee. The computer system preferably performs these steps in response to a single user action.
