  • Technological innovations can be protected by patents, and patent applications are filed in various patent offices around the world including the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Recently, the U.S. exportation of artificial intelligence and internet of things patents in the form of foreign sales of articles embodying U.S. patents and international technology licenses has grown substantially. However, due to the U.S. Supreme Court's Lexmark decision reconfirming an international patent exhaustion doctrine, the asian or korean importers importing such U.S. goods embodying U.S. patents do not have to worry about patent infringement liability, even when they try to resell the patented goods to the third parties. KCAB can play a substantial role in resolving such patent disputes due to qualified expert arbitrators and the International Rules of KCAB which ensure impartiality and independence of the arbitrators.

  • We investigated and analyzed the technological landscape of the global pet food industry, focusing on related industries in Korea and abroad. This industry accounts for the largest share of the rapidly growing global pet market. We aimed to identify and develop technologies that can strengthen Korea's position in this market. Our study employed various quantitative methods, including time series analysis, country and applicant analysis, and International Patent Classification (IPC) technology analysis. These analyses allowed us to objectively assess the current technological status, patent application distribution, and technological trends in the pet food industry. Our findings revealed that the United States currently holds the leading position in terms of patent applications within the pet food industry. This suggests that to establish a differentiated competitive edge in this field, it's crucial to develop technologies with high usability and target specific segments within related industries. Additionally, focusing on interdisciplinary research that combines Korea's existing advanced technologies with other relevant fields is essential.

In terms of trend by filling data, Patent application started first in 1974 and increased sharply in 1993 with 14 cases and increased to 25 cases in 2000. In case of Korea, they began somewhat late in 1996, but reached a similar level with the leading country in 2000. In terms of trend by applicant, Gerber Garment Technology, Inc. filed 7 cases TORAY IND INC, filed 6 cases Levi Strauss & Co. filed 4 cases, NEC HOME ELECTRONICS LTD filed 3 cases, TOYOBO CO LTD filed 3 cases. Japanese companies occupied 52% and United States's companies occupied 48%. In terms of trend by country, foreigner occupied 47% of the patents filed by United State. Japanese take up 10% of total patent of United States. Korean occupied 84% of total patent of Korea and foreigner, american occupied 16% of the patents filed by Korea. In regared to International Patent Classification, in the section level G filed 92 cases(53%). In class level, G06 marked the first place in United States, Japan, and Korea. In subclass level, G06F marksed the first place with 74 cases. G06T and A61B were regarded as the new technologies.

  • The competition environment among companies is rapidly expanding into the world market. Therefore, this study intended to suggest an analysis method of patent portfolio that can compare an international technological capacity through empirical analysis on the global automobile companies. This study measured international patent activity using triadic patent data of 20 years from 1991 to 2010, and measured patent quality from legal, technological and economic aspects. As a result, Ford and GM, automobile companies of America, are analyzed to be the potential leaders with greatly increased patent quality. The significance of this study is in measuring international patent activities between global companies from different countries based on the triadic patent. And, this study suggested methods of analyzing patent quality consistently from legal, technological and economic aspects based on the triadic patent.

  • Purpose: In the period of international integration, how is the implementation of intellectual property regulation in developing countries? Do intellectual property rights help attract more Foreign direct investment (FDI)? This study aims to show the effect of intellectual property rights, reflect in the number of patent registered (Patent distribution into two components: Patent_residents and Patent_non-residents) on FDI attraction in Vietnam. Research design, data and methodology: Using Autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model for the data collected from 1990 to 2018 with EViews version 9 software. Conclusions: The results indicate that the number of patent protection has a positive effect on FDI in both short term and long term. In particular, only patent registration of foreign individuals and organizations has a significant positive effect on attracting FDI, while that of Vietnamese patents is not statistically significant. From the results of this study, we provide some recommendations to help attract FDI based on raising awareness of intellectual property rights: Increase international cooperation for innovation to learn and encourage patent; Improve the capac ity of inventing as well as the ability to register patents of Vietnamese people; Government agencies are tasked to support a nd review registration procedures; Encouraging patent registration based on the patent.

  • This study is about the patent information analysis of relevant companies and technologies based on International Patent Classification (IPC) code. 902 patent applications in the field of electronic commerce(G06Q) by NAVER, the biggest internet company in Korea, are the subjects of this study. First, we investigated the number of applications and registrations per IPC code so that we could analyze the core technology areas and the status of patent application. In addition, we examined the convergence of technologies by investigating interconnections between main and sub categories of IPC codes. Lastly, we looked into the changes in patent technologies by investigating the status of application per IPC code in accordance with year. By analyzing the IPC code based patent information used in this study, we could further expect the trends of companies and technologies.

  • Patents is a strong asset. Samsung and Apple's patent lawsuit is a prime example. So many countries reinforce the intellectual property and they lay the emphasis on the patent. Utilizing the patent information efficiently is basic to the patent analysis. Patent information will provide for new science and technology information sources, international code is classified according to the international patent system IPC, being easily accessible. In this paper, analysis of foreign and domestic patents for zeolite technologies analysis using IPC. The current of technology development in such countries as Korea, USA, Japan, China and EU was analyzed by classifying the patents for 1992 through 2011 according to registration country, assignee, calendar year and technology area.

  • As market becomes global, international standardization is more critical for the success of businesses and countries. Especially in the field of ICT(Information and Communication Technology), standardization is more important. Businesses not only try to expand the standard favoring them, but also they try to include their IPR(Intellectual Property Rights) such as patents into the standard. By doing these, businesses can increase their share in the market. In this paper we consider the patents included into the standards of ITU-T and IEEE which are major international standards development organizations(SDO) in the field of ICT. The patent analysis is a meaningful research topic because it helps us to understand the current status and future directions of patent activities. We investigate the patent database with respect to the nationality and institution of patent owners. The results of patent database analysis are included and some comments are presented.
