IT support for IPC: Perspectives

Agenda:

• IPC revision



Streamline IT support for IPC information access

+ Consolidation of IT support procedures for IPC revision and publication

+ Further support IPC promotion through IT tools for IP offices (e.g. IPCPUBPREP, IPCA6TRANS, IPCCAT, TACSY…)

+ Further streamline IT operation support (e.g shared IPC bridge, reduce number of IPC viewers)


CL & AL revision operations detailed planning


Reduce portfolio of IT systems for the support for IPC

+ Centralize IPC and its IT support, FAQ

+ Systems to be phased-out from ITOS IT inventory :

•Prototyping system (IBIS)

• IPCVAL for Member States (keep only public IPCVAL)

• JOPAL IPC validation


New developments for IPC

+ IPC Internet publication redesign (reclassification information)

+ Develop IPC search functionality (IPCLASS-like)

+ Develop IT support updates through Download (e.g. IPCPUBPREP)

+ Redesign PDF IPC for easier update

+ Manage pre-Reform IPC editions

IPC symbol VALIDATION service: IPCVAL

• Implementation as WEB service with SOAP interface (to automate IPC validation for patent documents to be published)

Plans:


IPC Internet publication

preparation: IPCPUBPREP toolkit

AUTOMATION to reduce preparation delays

• Harmonize national IPC publications (functionality and presentation)

• IPC Maintenance costs reduction through centralized IT support by WIPO

• Interest: ES, NL, BR/PT, GR, PL, RU

Assistance for translation of the RIPC into non-authentic languages:

IPCA6TRANS toolkit

•Input: RIPC XML master files (EN & FR)

•Output: ready for preparation of internet publication in specific language (e.g. ES)

•See presentation IPCA6TRANS_CE37_PF.ppt


Categorization assistance in the IPC: Plans

• EN/FR Retraining with IPC8 classified documents from MCD and EPO full-text corpora• Standalone version based on IPC8-CL Cd-rom (ES)

IPCCAT

• More secure submissions (done for ES)

• Study IPC categorization at group level (ES)

• More languages (Chinese, Korean, …)


Categorization assistance in the IPC: Plans

• EN/FR Retraining with IPC8 classified documents from MCD and EPO full-text corpora

•Extension to Chinese, Korean

IPCCAT

• More secure submissions (i.e. HTTPs in progress)

• Study IPC categorization at group level (ES)


Natural Language search in the IPC

TACSY

• Extend to more language as requested by offices (ES, NL)

• Monitor user satisfaction http://www.wipo.int/tacsy/

Plans


From ITOS Section : 1 administrative assistant, 1 professional missing (IT operations and IT maintenance) .

From Outside WIPO: 4 contracts. One company went bankrupt in August 2007, 2 pending RFPs for IT operations.

From IT Division: 4 professionals provide support when other business priorities allow (IT maintenance)


Inside WIPO: 1 professional, 1 intern, 1 administrative assistant (shared with IT support for IPC in EN/FR)

IT operations and support Resources for ES support

Outside WIPO: Contracts shared with IT support for IPC in EN/FR

From IT Division: 4 professionals provide support when other business priorities allow (shared with IT support for IPC in EN/FR)
