Abstract
A method includes accessing, by a processor of a computing device, metadata of a data file associated with a mixed-IP rights project. The method also includes performing, by the processor, a comparison of values of metadata field(s) of the metadata to a rights criterion. The method further includes, based on whether the comparison indicates that values of the one or more metadata fields satisfy the rights criterion, storing data indicating assignment of an IP rights label of a set of candidate IP rights labels to the data file.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- accessing, by a processor of a computing device, metadata of a data file associated with a mixed-intellectual property (IP) rights project;
- performing, by the processor, a comparison of values of one or more metadata fields of the metadata to a rights criterion;
- and
- based on whether the comparison indicates that values of the one or more metadata fields satisfy the rights criterion, storing data indicating assignment of an IP rights label of a set of candidate IP rights labels to the data file.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more memory devices storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- accessing, by an intellectual property (IP) rights classifier, metadata of an engineering design or analysis data file associated with a blended-IP rights project;
- selecting, by the IP rights classifier based on the metadata, an IP rights label of a set of candidate IP rights labels to assign to the engineering design or analysis data file;
- and
- storing, at the one or more memory devices, data indicating assignment of the IP rights label assigned to the engineering design or analysis data file.
A computer-readable storage device storing instructions that are executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- accessing a data file associated with design or analysis of an engineering project in which multiple entities potentially have intellectual property (IP) rights;
- evaluating one or more metadata fields of metadata of the data file based on rights selection criteria;
- selecting, based on the rights selection criteria, an IP rights label of a set of candidate IP rights labels to be assigned to the data file;
- and
- storing data indicating assignment of the IP rights label to the data file.
