Intra-firm versus licensed transfers of machine-tool technology

Article Abstract:

Data obtained from previous surveys and interviews were used to determine the preferred mode of technology transfer among machine tool manufacturers and evaluate the effectiveness of internalized and licensed transfer agreements. Results indicate that machine tool manufacturers rely on internalized agreements to promote technology transfer in major markets. On the other hand, licensed transfers are considered by the machine tool industry as the 'second best' strategy for providing technical assistance to customers.

Adapting the intellectual property system to new technologies

Article Abstract:

The intellectual property system is investigated with respect to its ability to adapt to technological innovations. The system's capabilities are analyzed within the framework of three technologies, namely, biotechnology, software and computer databases. Three different platforms are evaluated. These are the infrastructure for shaping doctrine, the systems which award patents and intellectual property rights (IPR), and the systems which enforce IPR laws.
