Methods and systems for archiving, retrieval, indexing and amending of intellectual property

摘要

A technical and commercial method of managing information comprises the steps of: providing an information storage and retrieval system containing plural intellectual property; enabling access to the information storage and retrieval system by users through an electronic communications network for a fee; grading the users according to access privilege; creating for the user an access file for each of the intellectual properties; associating each access file with a corresponding intellectual property; and indexing the intellectual property by the associated access file; whereby the intellectual property may be located more easily through the access files. The amendment of intellectual property includes saving an instruction as to how to achieve the amendment and of indexing the instruction so as to easily retrieve it. The system is financed through an endowment trust so as to assure long term viability.
