This paper is to disclose NPEs' patent portfolios internationally. The operation of NPEs has aroused impacts on society, and its patents have been considered as valuable patents, which are more valuable than ITC patents and litigated patents. The value of NPE patents is not occasionally. Hence, this paper uses application & publication of nations, and NPE patents applied under PCT procedures,...
During the past decades, it has been gradually recognised that science, technology and innovation (STI) can provide solution to macro level science and technology (S&T) problems. To foster STI that enables socioeconomic growth, it is widely regarded as necessary means to build institutional capacity for optimising governance of STI. Therefore, many countries seek to integrate STI policies as part...
To increase the effectiveness of national innovation system, the linkage between university and industry, as the two important stakeholders, should be enhanced to motivate national level innovation. The objective of this study is to exam the linkage between university and industry by the use of patent citation. The dynamics of influences from university to industry or from industry to university are...
This study attempts to invest evolution technological development and competitive situation of mobile telecommunication industry by the use of patent analysis from the perspective of dynamic competitive. The four-step framework of dynamic competitive theory proposed by Chen in 2008 is adapted to investigate dynamic evolution of eight firms in mobile telecommunication industry, i.e. Apple, Samsung,...
Since 1997, M Inc. faced litigations against non-contracted and contracted farmers about the issues of IP infringement and contract breach. M Inc.'s IP strategies include licensing, royalties, violation reports, investigations, settlement agreement and lawsuits. Organic farmer associations (OSGATA) sued M Inc. for IP invalidity because of misuse, double patenting and IP unenforceability since 2011...
Interdisciplinarity in technology has been usually investigated by analyzing knowledge flow among different research field or industry. However, very limited researches have comparing the innovation capability and evaluated the influence of knowledge among different knowledge owner. This research aims to first find the inventor position of first assignee types, and second understands knowledge flow...
Due to the constantly changing nature of our society, the ability to make correct decisions is crucial for decision-makers. Understanding science-technology linkages and knowledge flows are of critical importance for decision-makers. A recent surge of research on patent has given us new opportunities and challenges; and there are many advances that have been made in the area of patent analysis. Therefore,...
This study aims to analyze patent portfolio of three-dimensional printing industry, future trends, as well as to explore how patent strategy could be developed. A total of 1089 patents that belong to 3D printing technologies are retrieved from the United State Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) patent database for analysis. There are two objects in this research: first, from the patent perspective...
This paper investigates if technology portfolio and patent litigation probability affect firms' short and long-term performances, which in past literature have mostly been associated with economic indicators or financial models. The patent data used in this paper are downloaded from the USPTO patent database and patent litigation probabilities are obtained from previous study. To measure firm performance,...
There has been a rapid change in innovation technological development since the past several decades. Understanding technological development trends, keeping advanced technologies, and acquiring the most inimitable and appropriate technologies are pivotal elements for a country or an organization to maintain its technological innovation competitiveness, but it is rather difficult to evaluate such...
Protecting innovation is an important issue for sustaining economic growth, intellectual property for defining innovation is therefore becoming an emerging research topic. Patent as a type of intellectual property plays importantly in protecting innovation can possibly be used for predicting infringement probability if conventional intellectual property service can be extended innovatively. This study...
