INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION IN VLSI DESIGNS

Intellectual property protection of hardware and software artifacts is of cru- cial importance for a number of dominating business models. Maybe even more importantly‚ it is an elegant and challenging scientific and engineering challenge. This book provides in detailed treatment of our newly developed constraint-based protection paradigm for the protection of intellectual proper- ties in VLSI CAD. The key idea is to superimpose additional constraints that correspond to an encrypted signature of the designer to design/software in such a way that quality of design is only nominally impacted‚ while strong proof of authorship is...

The Future Control of Food

Intellectual property (IP) rights are a source of hidden wealth worth trillions of dollars, and they impose hidden costs on the same scale. The rules of intellectual property range from confusing to nearly incomprehen- sible, and the professional practitioners who manage these rights sometimes seem to belong to a secret society. … The IP system also determines when and how an innovation becomes available for others to use by defin- ing boundaries around what is accessible and what is not. Intellectual property rights help determine which innovations are widely available and which are closed off, separating innovation haves from have-nots. … Ever-stronger intellectual property protection is...

SPIN-OUTS

Spin-out companies from university science departments are very fashionable, important and much encouraged by governments. The new high-tech companies offer the hope of keeping Western economies viable at a time when much manufacturing is being outsourced to developing countries. At the same time they are the best possible means by which those same developing countries can move away from a mere reliance on cheap labour and develop their own sophisticated industrial enterprises. They can also be a means of sustaining university finances, an idea reinforced recently in the UK by the Lambert Report....

Securing Intellectual Property

According to the World Intellectual Property Organization, intellectual property refers to “creations of the mind: inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce” (2008). The organization makes a distinction between two separate types of intellectual property, “industrial” and “copyright.” Typically, the former category of property is the kind owned by businesses (inventions, industrial designs, etc.), while the latter refers to artistic creations such as original writing or music. This book approaches the topic of intellectual property from an industrial perspective, focusing on the legal steps and preventative security measures that a business can...

Unternehmensnachfolge

Verluste sind die „Stiefkinder des Steuerrechts“. Der Staat erhebt Steuern auf die Gewinne (positiven Einkünfte) und damit auf die „upside“ des Wirtschaftens. Gleichzeitig zögert er, die negativen Einkünfte, die „downside“, vollständig zu be- rücksichtigen. In der gegenwärtigen Wirtschaftslage (2009) entstehen nicht bloße „Buchverluste“2 , sondern die Verluste belasten die Unternehmen wirtschaftlich. Die unternehmerischen Verluste auch und gerade steuerlich zu berücksichtigen ent- spricht einer freien Marktwirtschaft. Wenn der Staat stattdessen Hilfsleistungen ver- teilt, entmündigt er seine Bürger und hemmt das freie Unternehmertum. 3 Der Ge- setzgeber schränkte in den letzten Jahren die steuerliche Verlustberücksichtigung im Einkommen-, Körper- und Umwandlungsteuerrecht ausdrücklich immer weiter ein, um die Staatseinnahmen zu verstetigen. 4 Die Rechtsprechung reiht sich...

UNIVERSITY ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER: PROCESS, DESIGN, AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

American universities, indeed, universities throughout the world, are facing increased demand to share the knowledge developed within their campuses. Historically, students pass knowledge to the greater society. But since at least the 1960s, the university’s research role has dramatically increased, with more and more resources devoted to basic and applied research in the physical and biological sciences, engineering, humanities, social sciences, and management fields. Not all of this research can be transmitted through the graduation of students. Research on basic scientific and life processes and engineering also eventually results in applications in new products and processes. Given the large investment in university research, society natu- rally seeks greater returns through...

Improving Access to HIV/AIDS Medicines in Africa

The study on which this book reports was jointly commissioned by the World Bank and the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO) in 2005 to assess the extent to which member countries of ARIPO have utilized the flexibilities of the Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) Agreement to improve access to HIV/AIDS medicines. The study benefited from interviews with a number of policy makers, manufacturers, and national drug regulatory authorities in Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. The first draft of the study was also presented and discussed during the 2005 ARIPO and World Bank capacity-building workshop on Intellectual Property and Access to HIV/AIDS-Related Drugs. The authors are...

ESSENTIALS of Licensing Intellectual Property

T he invention of e-mail as an efficient mode of communication gives rise to an intriguing benefit:One need not answer a question immediately as would be expected in real-time conversation.

Intellectual Property Rights in Frontier Industries: Software and Biotechnology

Of all the controversies surrounding the current U.S. patent system– – and there are many– – the debate over intellectual property rights in high-technology industries is one of the most strident. Both software and biotechnology are dynamic, fast growing, and increasingly important fields. Creating the right incentives for innovation in these key industries is not just a matter of academic debate; the issue has real implications for the growth of the economy. Despite the stakes– – or perhaps because of them– – the academic community has reached little consensus on how to spur innovation in these fields without inhibiting follow-on...

COPYRIGHTSAND COPYWRONGS

My greatest debt is to Shelley Fisher Fishkin. She has been an ideal men- tor throughout my brief career and wil l continue to inspire my explo- rations for years to come. As Professor Fishkin exemplifies, there is no warmer social and intellectual suppor t system than the circle of Mark Twain scholars around the world. Victor Doyno and Rober t Hirst en- thusiastically encouraged me to pursue Twain's interest in copyright , and each opened up many invaluable opportunities. Louis J . Budd and David E. E.

Patent, Copyright & Trademark

I n simple terms, intellectual property is a product of the human intellect that has commercial value. Intellectual property encompasses a wide range of creations—from fiction, poetry, songs, designs, and artwork to ads, product names, mechanical inventions, processes, chemical formulas, machines, and software. The commercial value of intellectual property comes from the ability of its owner to control its use. If the owner could not legally require payment in exchange for use, ownership of the intellectual property would have intellectual worth but no commercial value....

Intellectual Property Rights for Engineers 2nd Edition

Engineers are natural innovators, whether they are involved in the basic development of a completely new system, or in making an existing system work better. Engineers and scientists1 are frequently willing to share their skills and ideas with others. Unfortunately, they sometimes find that others are less than willing to give appropriate credit or share the profits that can be made from these skills and ideas. Having one’s idea stolen is an unhappy situation, but not an infrequent one. This is where the law comes in, like it or not – and many engineers do not like the concept of legal controls on ideas at all. But...

SÁCH: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

T he human desire to claim property rights in an idea is innate, as any child who has ever told another “Stop copying me!” knows. Legal recognition of property in ideas, however— intellectual property—is a comparatively recent phenomenon, appearing centuries of millennia after the recognition of property rights in objects and land.

Intellectual Property and Information Control

This work contains numerous arguments, sketches, views, and theories and not all are central to the main thesis. I have tried to make the model of intellectual and intangible property presented in these pages accessible while maintaining a fair amount of rigor and depth. I thus skirt the line of boring the expert and overwhelming the novice. My hope is that I have done neither.

The Implementation Game

This book is the product of both scholarly research and a decade of profes- sional involvement in global policy debates on trade, intellectual property (IP), and sustainable development. My goal has been to write a book that captures what those closest to TRIPS implementation know first hand while employing scholarly methods to help make sense of that experience. The out- come is, I hope a book that both appeals to those working in the policy arena and is compelling to scholars of international relations, political economy and international law....
