 The PDF-to-Text converter, the key terms finder, and phrase extraction scripts all work well and have been tested. The Google Scholar Web Crawler is being worked on by Christy Warden, current status unknown.
-text versions of papers have been assembled in "Candidate Papers by LB." These were used as a test set for developing an analysis protocol for the entire paper. Analysis protocol has been developed that involves taking the counts of each term by topic per paper to assign each paper 1-4 topics. The process also counts the number of key terms in each paper for relevance, the number of modern terms, the year of the paper, the number of cost terms, the area of the paper, and the mentions of particular authors. All of this analysis is then dumped into artifacts. Analysis protocol is currently hard coded. Once a set list of terms has been established, a soft-coded version should be able to be developed [in progress].

−	~~=Measures=~~
−
−	~~==Types==~~
−
−	~~# '''Theory:''' Economic theory papers are largely concerned with the DHCI problem. (p.5)~~
−	~~# '''Empirical:''' Papers that drift towards first including overlapping patents along with DHCI, and then begin abandoning the usage of DCHI. (p.5)~~
−	# '''Discussion:''' It seems that economists favor DHCI and overlaps, cite Shapiro (2001) and do more theoretical work; whereas legal scholars favor overlaps, cite Heller and Eisenberg (1998) and provide discussion. (p.30)
−
−	~~==Industries==~~
−
−	~~# '''Basic Science:''' Basic research, which includes the commercialization of academic research, biotechnology, genetics, nanotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. (p.28)~~
−	# '''Complex Science:''' Complex product industries, which includes information and communications technology (aside from software and the internet but specifically including semiconductors), manufacturing, and sewing machines (which in the period of analysis of papers discussing it was a complex cutting-edge product). (p.28)
−	~~# '''Software / Bus. Method:''' An aggregate of firms focused on software, business methods, and the internet. (p.28)~~
−
−	~~==Topics==~~
−
−	~~# '''Effects on Academia:''' Overlapping patents are curiously related to basic science and the effects of patenting on academic research, both of which depend upon cumulative innovation. (p.30)~~
−	# '''Private Mechanism:''' Private arrangement papers discuss cross-licensing, patent pools, patent clearinghouses, patent collectives, FRAND licensing agreements, patent intermediaries (including NPEs), shared platforms, technology standards, and Standard Setting Organizations (SSOs). (p.27)
−	# '''Industry Commentary:''' There was also a distinct set of publications that engaged in industry commentary; commentary on the nanotechnology and genetics industries were particularly common. (p.27-28)
−	# '''IPR Reform:''' IPR reform papers suggest reforms to the nature of intellectual property rights, examine processes for granting patents at the patent office, and advocate approaches to patent-related transactions for anti-trust authorities. (p.27)
−	# '''Firm Strategy:''' Firm strategy papers provide strategic advice to firms regarding their intellectual property – they discuss the strategic implications of blocking patents, pre-emptive patenting, secrecy, ever-greening, avoiding willful infringement, engaging in Mexican standoffs, and other defensive or offensive patenting behaviors, as well the consequences of doings so on collaboration, industry structure (including entry), and the value of firms. (p.27)
−	# '''Patent Thickets:''' We suggest that one reason why papers implement definitions that are consistent with more than one economic issue is that many of the original definitions of patent thickets were made by analogy. Analogies face the risk of multiple possible interpretations. Shapiro (2001) is frequently quoted in the literature saying that patent thickets are “a dense web of overlapping intellectual property rights that a company must hack its way through in order to actually commercialize new technology". Shapiro’s analogy is compatible with all four of the most commonly discussed economic issues referred to as patent thickets. (p.3-4)
