                                             CALL FOR PAPERS 

                                IPWARE SUMMIT 2009 

                   Saint-Raphaël, France, October 21 - 23, 2009 

The purpose of the event is to bring together IP software users, vendors, developers and researchers to discuss the latest developments in all kinds of software which can be used to process Intellectual Property. The event includes a conference and vendor exhibition which will be open during the entire conference. 

Intellectual property is often difficult to value and exploit, and requires constant vigilance to protect. The complexity of legal procedures and enormous amount of information processing involved in any IP-related work make software tools indispensible in operative pursuing practical strategies for protecting and exploiting all aspects of intellectual property. 

A great number of excellent software tools on many aspects of intellectual property handling are already available, but there are issues to focus on. These involve matters like integration of IP software into a company's workflow for more operative administering and management, higher quality tools for search, examination, translation and composition of patents, customized systems that would enable both expert and non-expert users navigate IP documents pertinent to their specific needs and extract information of interest without reading the whole patent disclosure.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to 

Economic aspects of IP software 
Software for 

Strategic management of IP 
IP valuation 
IP knowledge management 
Case handling, cost calculation 
Patent analysis 
Keyword extraction, indexing and search 
Machine translation and computer-assisted translation of patents 
Patent composition 
Integration of IP software into general purpose business software 
User-tailored applications 
User experiences 
Evaluation of IP software systems 

Presentations on experiences and expectations of the IP software users as well as contributions from developers, vendors and researchers demonstrating real-life applications are particularly welcome. Presentations relating to any other aspects of IP processing are also encouraged. 

Speakers will have 20-30 minutes for presentations and 5-10 minutes for Q&A.
