Book Description
Overview of the Appeal Proceedings According to the EPC Third Edition Hugo Meinders, Philipp Lanz & Gérard Weiss About this book: Overview of the Appeal Proceedings According to the EPC helps in understanding the nature of the appeal proceedings before the Boards of Appeal. The previous editions of this book made an effort to explain in brief introductory terms how appeal proceedings work and how the Boards of Appeal function. This edition deals with the New Rules of Procedure adopted by the BoAC2 and approved by the Administrative Council which entered into force on 1 January 2020. About one in a hundred European patent cases end up before a Board of Appeal. The appeal reviews the decision of a first instance department of the European Patent Office. The appeal proceedings are substantially different from the first instance proceedings; they are a judicial review and not necessarily a continuation of the administrative first instance proceedings. This first aspect is even more pronounced since 1 January 2020, with the changes in the Rules of Procedure of the Boards of Appeal. What’s in this book: This book provides an easily readable overview of the appeal proceedings in the three official languages of the European Patent Office (EPO): English, German and French, including the (New) Rules of Procedure of the Boards of Appeal and the Enlarged Board of Appeal. It covers amongst others the following: (new) requirements on filing an appeal; the possible actions of the Board; the stricter treatment of late filings of the parties; and the conduct of oral proceedings and the issue of the decision. This book gives an up-to-date account of the most important issues of the appeal proceedings at the Boards of Appeal of the EPO. How this will help you: This book is intended as a reference book for applicants in ex-parte (examination appeal) proceedings, or patent proprietors or opponents in inter-partes (opposition appeal) proceedings, as appellants or respondents, or party as of right. It facilitates in finding an answer to issues that a party may encounter. Editors: Hugo Meinders, Philipp Lanz & Gérard Weiss

Patents in the Knowledge-Based Economy
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309167183
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
This volume assembles papers commissioned by the National Research Council's Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy (STEP) to inform judgments about the significant institutional and policy changes in the patent system made over the past two decades. The chapters fall into three areas. The first four chapters consider the determinants and effects of changes in patent "quality." Quality refers to whether patents issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) meet the statutory standards of patentability, including novelty, nonobviousness, and utility. The fifth and sixth chapters consider the growth in patent litigation, which may itself be a function of changes in the quality of contested patents. The final three chapters explore controversies associated with the extension of patents into new domains of technology, including biomedicine, software, and business methods.

Gowers Review of Intellectual Property
Author: Andrew Gowers
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 0118404830
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
This report examines the importance of intellectual property (IP), ranging from patents, copyright, design and trade marks, and whether in the age of globalization, digitization and increasing economic specialization it still creates incentives for innovation, without unduly limiting access to consumers and stifling further innovation. The report does recommend a radical overhaul of the system, with the review concentrating on three areas, and setting out the following recommendations: (i) strengthening enforcement of IP rights, whether through clamping down on piracy or trade in counterfeit goods; (ii) reducing costs of registering and litigating IP rights for businesses large and small; (iii) improving the balance and flexibility of IP rights to allow individuals, businesses and institutions to use content in ways consistent with the digital age.

Europe's Foreign and Security Policy
Author: Michael E. Smith
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521538619
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
The emergence of a common security and foreign policy has been one of the most contentious issues accompanying the integration of the European Union. In this book, Michael Smith examines the specific ways foreign policy cooperation has been institutionalized in the EU, the way institutional development affects cooperative outcomes in foreign policy, and how those outcomes lead to new institutional reforms. Smith explains the evolution and performance of the institutional procedures of the EU using a unique analytical framework, supported by extensive empirical evidence drawn from interviews, case studies, official documents and secondary sources. His perceptive and well-informed analysis covers the entire history of EU foreign policy cooperation, from its origins in the late 1960s up to the start of the 2003 constitutional convention. Demonstrating the importance and extent of EU foreign/security policy, the book will be of interest to scholars, researchers and policy-makers.

Process Engineering and Industrial Management
Author: Jean-Pierre Dal Pont
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118565983
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Process Engineering, the science and art of transforming raw materials and energy into a vast array of commercial materials, was conceived at the end of the 19th Century. Its history in the role of the Process Industries has been quite honorable, and techniques and products have contributed to improve health, welfare and quality of life. Today, industrial enterprises, which are still a major source of wealth, have to deal with new challenges in a global world. They need to reconsider their strategy taking into account environmental constraints, social requirements, profit, competition, and resource depletion. “Systems thinking” is a prerequisite from process development at the lab level to good project management. New manufacturing concepts have to be considered, taking into account LCA, supply chain management, recycling, plant flexibility, continuous development, process intensification and innovation. This book combines experience from academia and industry in the field of industrialization, i.e. in all processes involved in the conversion of research into successful operations. Enterprises are facing major challenges in a world of fierce competition and globalization. Process engineering techniques provide Process Industries with the necessary tools to cope with these issues. The chapters of this book give a new approach to the management of technology, projects and manufacturing. Contents Part 1: The Company as of Today 1. The Industrial Company: its Purpose, History, Context, and its Tomorrow?, Jean-Pierre Dal Pont. 2.
