IPC-8 Core level CDROM: Functionality based on IPC8 Internet Publication 3 levels of installation under Windows or Linux: • 100% from CD:(neither installation nor internet access are required) • 100% intranet:software installation but no internet access required • 100% intranet + internet access for IPC bridge

  8. 2. IPC-8 Core level CDROM From ES-IPC8-CL...

  9. 2. IPC-8 Core level CDROM …to EN-IPC8-CL and FR-IPC8-CL • First implementation under Spanish Funds in Trust for Spanish language (March 2006 ) • Decision to re-use ES-IPC8-CL to produce a similar English and French version (data and interface)

  10. 3. RIPCIS software status Reformed IPC revision management system: • RIPCIS : First use by the IB to prepare IPC 2007.01 • First use by the IB outside WIPO during ALS meeting (Tokyo September 2006) • Read-only access for IPC Member States: Required IT security checking in progress

  11. 4. IPC 2007.01 publication preparation • IPC Master files from RIPCIS: Oct.2, 2006 • IPCVAL for MS up loaded: Oct.2, 2006 • Early access to Internet publication 2007.01: Oct.6, 2006 • List of known issues : updated and on-line • RIPCIS views for minor modifications or new groups

  12. RIPCIS E forum IPCPUBPREP IBIS & Master files Early access to edition N+1 IPC_Early_pub TACSY restricted IPCVAL_4MS IPC Web site Master files & transforms IPCCAT TACSY IPCPUBPREP IPC_pub IPCVAL IPC 2007.01 publication preparation Revision of edition N+2 Public edition N

  13. Reformed IPC Internet publication preparation: IPCPUBPREP toolkit AUTOMATION to reduce preparation delays IPC 20060101 edition: preparation delay (Outsourcing): ~2 months Target for 200701 edition (IT meeting July): Delay=2 weeks after Master files availability Early internet publication for 200701 edition : Delay= 1 week after Master files availability

  14. 5. IPCCAT : What is new ? • IPC8 Retraining of IPCCAT in EN, FR: delayed • HTTPS: in progress • Batch server for Spanish version:in progress • Prototype for Chinese language: ready

  15. IPC 8 Main Group Level Number of Training Patents 1’144’220 Number of Testing Patents 286’055 Total Number of Patents 1’430’275 Number of Different Words 906’866 Number of Trained Main Groups 6’665 Total Number of IPC7 Main Groups valid in IPC8 7’066 Coverage (% of Trained Categories) 94% 5. IPCCAT Prototype for Chinese language CORPUS STATISTICS

  16. IPCCAT Prototype for Chinese language Accuracy measure Top prediction: IPCCAT’s best prediction is the patent’s real main category Three guesses: One of IPCCAT’s best 3 predictions is the patent’s real main category

  17. IPCCAT Prototype for Chinese language TESTS RESULTS Main Group Sub-class 6 / 10 Top Prediction 8 / 10 7 / 10 Three guesses 8 / 10 94% IPC8 Coverage 97% Demo

  18. 5. IPCCAT : What comes next ? • Secure access to IPCCAT : HTTPS • Dedicated server for Spanish language • Retraining of IPCCAT with English/French documents and IPC8 classification

  19. 6. IPC validity file (VF) clarification: What in VF? • Clarification version of the specification V1.9 • Until V1.7 (May 2005): NO Version indicator • V 1.8 decision: From_date= Version indicator • V 1.9 (August 2006): From_date= Version indicator only for AL

  20. 6. IPC validity file (VF) clarification: Why? • Problem raised at the second IT expert meeting in May 2005 (see item 01) • In VF, Validity_date_From is “date on which its properties are valid in particular classification level” + (since V1.8) “version indicator”=“version date” in the following slides • Summer 2006: Validity_date_From cannot be Version indicator for both AL and CL

  21. See CONOPS 2008.01.01 2009.01.01 H04L 15/03 2008.01.01 Version Indicator / VF from_date & level Decision=“C” type change for AL and later forCL Level in VF Adv. Only VF from date H04L 15/03 Common VF from date 2006.01.01 Core only VF from date Time Version indicator 01/2006 1/2008 01/2009 H04L 15/03 - 01.2009?

  23. 7. IT Operations & Support for IPC today Limited flexibility for future actions to IT support IPC in authentic languages: • IT team: (Project Manager & 50% consultant) • ITOS 90% dependency on outside partners and other IB business priorities • No specific IT budget for further development • Procurement: New rules, transparency but longer delays

  24. AUTOMATION of IT support operations for IPC • Benefits: • Price: How IT Operations & Support for IPC can address this situation: • Reduction in preparation delays • Need forstability & long term strategies • Longer notice for changes • Care in planing • Priorities
