Abstract
By integrating patent portfolio design ideas and TRIZ innovative approaches, a patent portfolio design model is proposed in this paper, which is based on the enterprise’s core technology. Basing on this model, the TRIZ based portfolio design process is developed via matching the TRIZ innovative methods and the types of patent portfolio and constructing patent portfolios using homologous TRIZ innovative methods. Taking TRIZ as the basic theory and synthesizing innovative methodologies, patent jurisprudence, and management, interdisciplinary research of collaborative innovative design is conducted.
Highlights
Patent portfolio is strategic patent collection, which will consolidate the patent owner's patent competitive advantage through combination of patents that are obvious differences and closely related
Grindley [5] studied the combination of patent licensing and cross-licensing and hold the view that the patent portfolio model is helpful for the choice of internal and external R & D
Various problem solving and analyzing tools are applied in patent portfolio design processes, such as patent analysis, patent excavation, patent applications and the patent portfolio
Summary
Patent portfolio is strategic patent collection, which will consolidate the patent owner's patent competitive advantage through combination of patents that are obvious differences and closely related. Portfolio design ideas originate from economic management field. In early 1990s, Brockhof [2] introduced this theory to the field of corporate patent strategy in his pioneering patent portfolio model. Current researches on patent portfolio mostly focus on the area of management. Sccot [3] provides a mechanism for patent portfolio analysis and decisionmaking to help companies effectively implement the developing strategy of the R & D patent and enhance their research and development capabilities. In Ziedonis’ research [4], companies’ core technology was found by searching the scale and number of the best patent portfolios. Kang Yuhang [6] take the multi-scaling MDS as a patent portfolio analysis tool to demonstrates the combination relations between patent data item sets in the form of visualization for business analysis. Various problem solving and analyzing tools are applied in patent portfolio design processes, such as patent analysis, patent excavation, patent applications and the patent portfolio
