Method and system for automatic scoring of the intellectual properties

A system for managing a pool of intellectual property instruments, said system comprising:

• a first memory section holding information about a first pool of intellectual property instruments;
• wherein said first pool of intellectual property instruments comprises a first subpool of intellectual property instruments;
• an intellectual property score database to store scores for a first one of intellectual property instruments and a second one of intellectual property instruments belonging to said first pool of intellectual property instruments and said first subpool of intellectual property instruments, respectively;
• a processor or controller which accesses said intellectual property score database;
• an allocator to assign a pool distribution amount among said first one of intellectual property instruments and said second one of intellectual property instruments, based on said scores for said first one of intellectual property instruments and said second one of intellectual property instruments stored in said intellectual property score database;
• and
• one or more accounting records to store said assigned pool distribution;
• wherein said one or more accounting records are associated with one or more of said intellectual property instruments;
• and
• wherein said one or more accounting records are associated with one or more beneficiaries.

A system for managing and scoring a pool of intellectual property instruments, said system comprising:

• a first memory section holding information about a first pool of intellectual property instruments;
• wherein said first pool of intellectual property instruments comprises a first subpool of intellectual property instruments;
• one or more event record units associated with one or more specific events or transactions;
• a processor or controller which accesses said one or more event record units;
• one or more intellectual property records associated with intellectual property instruments associated with said first pool of intellectual property instruments and said first subpool of intellectual property instruments;
• an intellectual property score updater to update a first intellectual property score associated with a first intellectual property instrument associated with said first pool of intellectual property instruments and a second intellectual property score associated with a second intellectual property instrument associated with said first subpool of intellectual property instruments, based on said one or more specific events or transactions and one or more rules;
• wherein said one or more specific events or transactions correspond to one or more of said intellectual property instruments associated with said first pool of intellectual property instruments and said first subpool of intellectual property instruments;
• and
• one or more memory units to store said updated first intellectual property score and said updated second intellectual property score.

A method for managing and scoring a pool of intellectual property instruments on a computer system, said method comprising:

• assigning a first score to a first one of intellectual property instruments within a first pool of intellectual property instruments by an initialization module;
• wherein said first pool of intellectual property instruments comprises a first subpool of intellectual property instruments;
• assigning a second score to a second one of intellectual property instruments within said first subpool of intellectual property instruments by said initialization module;
• storing said first score and said second score in a memory unit in said computer system;
• an updater updating said first score and said second score in said memory unit, based on one or more specific events or transactions and one or more rules stored in a database, within said computer system or accessed by said computer system;
• allocating a pool distribution amount among said first one of intellectual property instruments and said second one of intellectual property instruments based on said updated first score and said updated second score;
• associating said allocated pool distribution amount with one or more accounting records, stored within said computer system or accessed by said computer system;
• and
• associating said one or more accounting records with one or more beneficiaries.
