Patenting computer-implemented inventions (CII)

A complete workshop on computer-implemented inventions (CII), with detailed learning modules about essential concepts, definitions and exclusions to patentability. The workshop offers the opportunity to explore the relationship between CII and business methods, game rules, mathematics (including artificial intelligence) and the presentation of information/graphical user interfaces. It includes self-paced reading, exercises and interaction with tutors, who guide participants from the principles underlying patenting CII to knowledge on how to patent specific topics related to CII and the difficulties involved. The workshop is for people already familiar with the concepts underlying patenting CII who would like to refresh their knowledge of the essentials and deepen their familiarity by exploring particular topics.
