Resource unification
Bring internet resources into a common working environment, then provide a framework for accessing and operating them.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Picowork’s company materials describe a parent-and-child patent strategy spanning internet resource unification, cloud working environments and collaborative networks.
Portfolio figures are as reported in the supplied company materials. They are not a live patent register or a statement that all filings or grants remain in force.
THE INVENTION MAP
Some patents cover more than one invention area. Coverage counts overlap and must not be added to calculate unique granted patents.
THE PORTFOLIO STRATEGY
A parent patent addresses the underlying collaborative cloud concept.
Child patents address complementary functions and implementation areas.
Some inventions are addressed by more than one patent within the portfolio.
Bring internet resources into a common working environment, then provide a framework for accessing and operating them.
Establish, administer and synchronise the shared environment that connects people and resources.
Extend the model to communication, information delivery, data collection, analytics and IoT integration.
GEOGRAPHIC COVERAGE IN THE MATERIALS
The source identifies these markets in its utility-patent filing strategy. It reports foundational patent approvals in China and the United States, and describes part of the portfolio as receiving PCT search assessments with no similar citations.
The company materials identify Able World International Limited as the patent-holding entity, separated from Picowork’s operating company. Patent ownership, legal scope and enforceability should be established from the relevant records for any transaction.
THIRD-PARTY EVALUATION DESCRIBED
The supplied materials attribute an evaluation of Picowork’s patent portfolio to this institution. The summary describes the breadth of the collaborative cloud operating system portfolio and the development effort behind it as sources of differentiation.
The underlying report and patent records would be needed to assess the precise conclusions, claim scope and legal status. For transaction due diligence, review the underlying evaluation alongside jurisdiction-specific patent records and claim scope.
