Prior Art Achive
Según la Oficina Europea de Patentes (EPO), prior art es:
Prior art is any evidence that your invention is already known.
Prior art does not need to exist physically or be commercially available. It is enough that someone, somewhere, sometime previously has described or shown or made something that contains a use of technology that is very similar to your invention».
El Instituto de Tecnología de Massachusetts (MIT) y Cisco han colaborado para crear esta primera plataforma de archivo abierto y gratuita para toda la industria de TI.
