Wed - April 30, 2003Intellectual Assets Management: From Patent to Knowledge Paper Appears in World Patent InformationAbstract
The June 2003 issue of World Patent Information contains a paper from an Italian group which has put together a patent collection and analysis tool that they are calling ArchIPat. The software was developed by an academic spin-off within the AREA Science Park of Trieste. A user can conduct a search using the system and select which patent provider they would like to have the data downloaded from. Once retrieved ArchIPat will create a relational database from the data (in either Oracle or Access format) and allow the user to analyze the data using various text and data mining methods.

Authors Douglas McQueen and Henrik Olsson have published a study of the growth of embedded software related patents in the June 2003 issue of the journal Technovation. Unfortunately, their methods are highly questionable and the dataset they used to perform the analysis is probably highly flawed.

Wikis are open source constructs for sharing information amongst a dispersed community of users. Short on style and long on substance, pages on a Wiki can be edited by any of the participants and are meant to gather and record the consensus of a community on a topic or project. They could represent the next step in internet collaboration and sharing, taking the place of email and discussion lists. An article in the April issue of Searcher provides a large number of Wiki links and a detailed discussion on the topic.
