About this Blog

As enterprise supply chains and consumer demand chains have beome globalized, they continue to inefficiently share information “one-up/one-down”. Profound "bullwhip effects" in the chains cause managers to scramble with inventory shortages and consumers attempting to understand product recalls, especially food safety recalls. Add to this the increasing usage of personal mobile devices by managers and consumers seeking real-time information about products, materials and ingredient sources. The popularity of mobile devices with consumers is inexorably tugging at enterprise IT departments to shifting to apps and services. But both consumer and enterprise data is a proprietary asset that must be selectively shared to be efficiently shared.

Chinese Patent Issued

Patent protection for Common Point Authoring system is globally spreading

BEIJING, CHINA, September 17, 2007 —Pardalis, Inc. announced today that a notification has been received from the Chinese government following their review of Pardalis' U.S. Patent #6,671,696. The Pardalis 696 Patent was issued by the United States in 2003 and is entitled ‘Informational object authoring and distribution system’. The notification received from China signifies that an equivalent Chinese patent was granted on June 20, 2007 and numbered as ZL02820809.9. The term of the patent will be in force until August 13, 2022.

Pardalis' 696 patent is also known as the parent patent for the Common Point Authoring™ system. The critical benefit and characteristic of the Common Point Authoring™ system is granular information ownership.

“China now joins Australia, Mexico and New Zealand as countries which have either issued patents to Pardalis or are in the process of doing so,” said Steve Holcombe, Pardalis’ CEO. “We also expect similar actions by 2009 from Brazil, Canada, Europe, Hong Kong, India and Japan.”

““We are very pleased with the spreading of global patent protections for the Common Point Authoring™ system,” Holcombe said. “More detailed information about the Common Point Authoring™ system is available in our recent white paper, Banking on Granular Information Ownership, retrievable from Pardalis’ homepage.”
