A long time ago when computing occurred when users were related to the manufacturers who were the manufacturers of computers and therefore also of the software in which it is essential to use through very specific and strict contracts.
In what was in the 60`s when the lowering began, that is, the costs of computers began to fall and a search began to be able to achieve what was a process to be able to apply what is legislation for be able to have copyright of the software.
Nowadays, it has begun to try what is very fundamental for American multinational companies, where the software industry begins to register according to what are patent rights.
What are copyright?
Well, copyright is more than anything a set of legal norms and principles that regulate or monitor the moral and economic rights that the law grants to those who are authors (copyright), with the sole fact that they have done a creation of one, whether of a work such as literary, artistic, musical, scientific or didactic, it is beginning to be published or unpublished. Well here The legislation is in charge of copyright in the West begins in 1710 with the Statute of Queen Anne.
This is very important since it is recognized as one of the fundamental human rights in what is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Well, mainly this is a public recognition of something that is believed to be determined as a good that could be cultural, scientific, artistic, dynamic, etc., therefore this means that it has been produced or created by a certain author.
Which this means is going to produce what is a protection for the person who has created something then this is going to fall into the hands of the legislation on what intellectual property, that is, no one can modify its creation or misuse it.
That is why it is very important to highlight what is the difference between brands and patents in which they will be discussed below:
What is a trademark?
A brand is any item that we as consumers recognize as such. In which a product that has been covered with such a very attractive clothing that the product is desired or attractive is the one that begins to be requested or demanded, with greater preference than other products.
Good if the brand is, symbol, design, name or term, or a combination of them, in which it is assigned to a product or a service, therefore the one who is directly responsible. All this is who has the duty to make it known, to identify and of course know how to differentiate from what the competition is; It must in which it has to guarantee its best quality and constant improvement.
Well if a brand refers to what is a denomination in which one begins to refer to what is a sign or a material medium in which it can be either any class or form in which it helps us to distinguish between a product from others that are similar. So the brands that have an owner, only these can be in fact one of the most active main of what a campaign is.
For example, companies like Coca-Cola or El Corte Ingles, these companies spend what is a large part of their budget (of their money) with the simple reason to take care and more than anything to promote what their brands are.
Many ask the question of how to obtain what a brand is? Well, all this is very laborious since there are a series of requirements, which are dependent on the public administrators of each country in which they maintain it. which is a detailed record of trademarks such as trade names, labels, etc. in which each article has grouped what is the selection of brands.
How do you claim a trademark? Well, when these types of cases occur, do what is a dispute is to defend the existing brand where this comes to the hands of the judge where he begins to investigate or resolve what is the disagreement of the discussion to see who it belongs to. These types of cases tend to arise a lot, which they take to trial of this type to claim their fair share.
To be able to name what a brand is, too much imagination must be needed and, of course, to be able to promote the brand in a continuing purpose for the public so that the company ends up creating its reputation and therefore none another company of these must have the right to promote or enjoy it.
What is a patent?
In the first place, a patent is what is a set of rights exclusively granted by a state to which it is the inventor of when it makes its new creation or product so that it can be industrially exploited clearly that this is going to be for what it is a determined period.
As another definition, it is in a rigorous way that it begins to deal with a monopoly that is therefore temporary on what technology is.
From a certain fucking point of view, it is more officially that they consent and above all protect the monopolies in which they are supposed to be the only mechanism in which they guarantee what their investment is that was made in the investigation and of course for the development of the product, its good technique among many other things.
To have what is a monopoly, it must be clearly implemented by granting the owner that he is the author of the patent in which he has the right to exploit that product, be it technology, etc.
This is done if the law has what are some limitations, but these limitations must have a period of time, that is, it has a certain duration, such as that period of time could expire in 20 years where it must be exploited.
Benefits of a patent:
These are some arguments in which a patent benefits us in which it grants its inventor which are the following:
- This begins with what is creativity as the main motive to its author or inventor where he knows that he has a protection of his creation in which it will last for 20 years and he will be the only one to exploit it. if in what is trade or industry and what is success arises, this is where the inventor begins to see how benefited he is with the placement are the licenses in what his exploitation does in which he decides if he wants to grant to third parties. They are plagiarized where the information is misused. Due to what is the creation that was made to this activity, this does not mean that it was saved or that they want to say that it is only used to prevent its industrial exploitation, well here only the inventor must always be the one to make known,publish and give an explanation of the benefits granted by his invention, on the other hand, in the government in which he intervenes through patents in which he promotes the creation of inventions of what is the industrial application, where he begins to promote in what is the development and exploitation of industry and commerce, as well as what is the transfer of technology.
What are the damages of what is the handling of patents ?:
- It tends to hinder what is new innovations or to make an improvement in what it is that slows down what is technological development. It puts many obstacles to monopoly companies to what is free competition. It makes it very difficult. in what it is to have access to impoverished countries to what are new technologies They pose an obstacle to or that is the improvement of research where a process of exclusive use of a technology has to be carried out without having the need to improve it.
What is an invention?
An invention is any human creation that allows transforming whatever is a matter or energy that exists in nature, so that it can be used by man and therefore satisfy what his specific needs are. By the time a creation occurs and you want to patent them, these must be an invented activity and of course it must be new and as a result of what is an inventive activity and susceptible to industrial application.
