Technology helps users get
more from patent information
Siân Harris from Research Information, February-March
2009
What do patent information
users need?
A patent is the link between R&D and the legal processes.
This defines the players: researchers, IP professionals
or patent information professionals, and the pure legal
people who need patent information to use in court.
We started by serving the IP experts but we have now
broadened in both directions....

porfolio?
April 16, 2009 from French publication L'Usine Nouvelle
Un brevet n'est pas qu'un droit d'interdire. Il est

Edital.com: The last
version
Searching:
- Search by OWNER has been improved. If you enter several
words, the
system will look for both the words together and separately.
For example, for BGB COM it will look for (BGB AND COM)
OR BGBCOM
- For a search by OWNER in the French register, the
system will no longer look at the address.
Ergonomics of the portal:
- Registers are grouped in tabs by IP Rights and geographical
regions.
If you click on "Registers" during a session,
you will directly return to the tab of the category
you were using.
- The different Views are available in a drop-down menu.
- It is now possible to select the print languages,
the export and report formats directly in the toolbar
without having to change the preferences.
Views:
- The Essential View contains the content
of the Short View + the status and the description of
the goods and services (with translations). The price
of this new view is 2€.
- The Dual View. List View can now
be combined with one of the 3 other Views. The combination
has to be set up in the Preferences (Display tab).
You can display the details of a selected name (in
the format you set up in your Preferences) simply by
clicking the hyperlink on “Appl. N°” or “Reg. N°”.
You can easily resize the left pane (List View) or
the right pane (2nd selected View) by clicking on the
icons available at the bottom of the screen left of
"Items".
Search Report:
- The Search Report is now available in the Standard
Mode and includes the list and the details of the selected
names. Contrary to the report in the Advanced Mode,
it doesn’t contain the last chapter with the full list
of names.
- The report is now available in .doc and .pdf in addition
to .rtf. The default format is
the one selected for the export. If you selected .xls
or .xml for the Export, the default format for the Report
will be .rtf.
- The definition of the asked questions in the Advanced
Mode is included in the Search Report. |
