This adversely affects the quality and efficiency of the patent procedures in each stage thereof, and the protection of newly-developed techniques. This also seriously affects the efficiency of the examination of applications, the prevention of a delay in the granting of a patent right to an invention and the functions of the system of patent, and this unfavorable influence is further increased by the advancement and complication of techniques, an increase in the number of patent applications and the application filing system.
