This document discusses patentability searches and the process of conducting them. It covers the criteria for patentability, including novelty, non-obviousness, and usefulness. It describes what a patentability search involves, including searching patent and non-patent databases to determine if prior art exists that could prevent patenting an invention. It recommends conducting a patentability search early in the invention process to identify any relevant prior art and help guide research and development decisions.
This Presentation teaches on how to search patent using various patent database like Free patent database, Patent database of National Authority and Paid patent database. It also focus on general parts of the patent and why patenting is needed. This presentation was delivered to M.Pharm. student by Mr. Pratik Vora for supporting them in their dissertation topic search. Hope you may find it helpful to you, also.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Patentability Tests / Criteria
The Supreme Court has said that patents cover “anything under the sun that is made by man”.
Must fall within five Statutory Classes :
• Processes
• Machines
• Manufactured items (objects made by humans or machines)
• Compositions of matter, and
• New uses of any of the above
Conditions for Patentability:
• Novelty (i.e. new) - Invention not known to public, prior to claim by inventor
• Non-Obviousness (i.e. inventive step) - Invention would not be obvious to a person with ordinary skill in the art
• Usefulness (i.e. industrial applicability) - Invention can be made or used in any useful, practical activity as distinct
from purely intellectual or aesthetic one
3. TT Consultants 33
What is a Patentability Search?
“Patentability search” or “Novelty search” is probably the most common type of patent search. The search
attempts to determine whether a specific invention is within the scope of the patentable subject matter.
Patentability search can be performed much earlier during the development of an invention, it is more commonly
performed prior to submitting a patent application to check the feasibility of the invention.
Purpose
The purpose of this type of search is to determine whether
there are any previous patents (prior art) that might prevent
the inventor from patenting his or her idea
Another benefit is that the inventor can be spared the expense
of filing a patent application, since the filing fee is not
refunded, if the application is rejected.
4. TT Consultants 44
Why conduct a Patentability Search?
Large investments are made in R&D initiatives
Huge costs are involved in filing and maintaining patents
At each step of your research a number of ideas/inventions may seem patentable. It becomes imperative to
decide what inventions should be protected and what should be modified or discarded.
Patentability searches help identify novelty of your invention and existence of any relevant prior art, which
can help orient the future R&D strategy and decision making.
Building up a strong patent portfolio is necessary not only to avoid future litigations, but also assert the
patent in case of an infringement
As opposed to the conventional idea of being an extra expense on the company, novelty searches are always a
good return of investment (ROI) in the long run.
5. TT Consultants 55
Patentability and State of the art Search
Patentability Search
Conducted upon receiving a brief invention
disclosure or exemplary claim. All disclosures and
drawings/figures are reviewed prior to search.
Involves a global search for patents (both unexpired
and expired), patent applications, and technical
literature (non-patent literature), over and above
what an examiner searches to improve the quality
of the application.
A patentability opinion (provided by a patent
attorney/agent) is necessary, prior to drafting a
complete patent specification.
State of the Art Search
Conducted upon receiving a new idea or business
method (that has still not been developed), a
general product description or a technology of
interest that you might want to explore.
All issued patents are analyzed, expired or not.
Because a product may have more than one
invention associated with it, this search is usually
more comprehensive and may result in a large no.
of citations related to the new idea.
Scope of the search is much broad and the analysis
is less strict than if the search were for your use in
determining patentability or infringement.
6. TT Consultants 66
Quick Novelty Search
Understanding the claimed invention
Keyword based open search or NPL searching (general searching/literature referencing
on Google) – look out for articles, research papers, videos, etc.
Keyword based search on free patent databases like Google Patents, Espacenet or
country specific databases (KIPROS, SIPO, PAJ) etc.
Technology classification based search (IPC, CPC, US, ECLA, etc) on patent databases
Combinational search (keyword and classification combined)
Assignee/inventor based search
Citation analysis (analysis of forward and backward references of relevant patents)

Provisional and Non-Provisional Application
Provisional Application
A simple and inexpensive way to begin protecting
your invention. Gives you extra time to decide
whether to pursue the full patent application or not.
Provisional Applications are confidential
documents not available to the public (unless and
until a subsequent non-provisional is publicly
available)
Moreover, Provisional Applications will not be
subjected to examination by patent office.
Non-Provisional Application
Establishes an invention's filing date (unless it
claims the benefit of an earlier filed application,
such as a Provisional Application).
Filing a Non-Provisional Application starts the
official examination process to determine if the
invention is patentable.
Non-provisional applications are confidential
documents not available to the public unless and
until published and/or issued as a patent.
Non-Provisional Applications are subjected to
official examination
Further, because a provisional patent application (PPA) is not made public unless its application number is
noted in a later-published application or patent, the failure by an applicant to file a non-provisional
application based on his/her PPA will not lead to public disclosure of his/her invention.
