【摘要】：计算机软件经历了商业秘密保护、版权保护。现在，在西方发达国家的推动下，由计算机软件产生的相关发明正在试图用专利来保护。但是对于计算机软件相关发明可以获得专利保护的条件，一直处于争议之中，还无法就此给出一个明确的答案。本文主要通过对美国近期七个典型的案例研究来探讨这一问题。美国的Bilski案在美国专利史上有非常重要的意义，世界范围内的媒体都给予了广泛关注。其经过长达两年之多的审判过程一波三折。美国最高法院由此确定了计算机软件相关发明审理的一般标准。众所周知，美国是一个判例法国家，在其后诸多与计算机软件发明相关案件的审理中，都引用了该标准。但同时又提出了一些新的判决理由和审判的方向，为我们指明了方向。本文选取了继Bilski案件之后的计算机软件相关发明的六个典型案例，试图从这七个案例审判中总结出法院审理计算机软件相关发明的一般审判标准。在本文中，主要总结了四点规律。本文由引言、正文和结语三个部分构成。在引言中本文首先介绍了其他国家对计算机软件相关发明这个概念的定义。将计算机软件相关发明的概念与计算机程序的概念区别开，确立本文的研究对象。然后介绍了本文研究的背景、目的。正文分为四个部分：第一部分，，介绍Bilski案件。该部分首先回顾了Bilski案件的整个案情，指出其主要争议点，然后总结其确立的判断标准，最后论述该案确立的标准对裁判类似案件的重要意义。第二部分，是对后Bilski时期法院相继判决的六个计算机软件相关的案件的介绍，这六个案件被在之后被判决的案件中引用并作为判决理由，因此具有典型性。该部分对这六个案件的案情作了简介，重点指出其确定的判决标准。第三部分，总结以上六个案件所反映的认定计算机软件相关发明的专利适格方面的总体趋势，总结了四点规律。第四部分，首先介绍了云计算的概念和特征，结合以上六个案件反映的趋势并进行总结和对比，探讨云计算的可专利性问题，力图为云计算寻求一种合适的保护模式。
[Abstract]:Computer software has experienced trade secret protection and copyright protection. Now, driven by the Western developed countries, Related inventions generated by computer software are trying to be protected by patents. But the conditions under which computer software-related inventions can be patented have been controversial. It is not possible to give a clear answer to this question. This paper mainly discusses this problem through seven recent typical case studies in the United States. The Bilski case in the United States is of great significance in the history of patents in the United States. The media around the world have paid a lot of attention. After two years of trial, the United States Supreme Court has established the general standards for the trial of computer software-related inventions. As we all know, The United States is a case law country, which has been cited in subsequent trials of cases related to computer software inventions. However, it has also put forward some new reasons for judgment and the direction of the trial. This paper selects six typical cases of computer software-related inventions following the Bilski case. This paper attempts to sum up the general trial standards of computer software related inventions in court from these seven cases. In this paper, four main rules are summarized. This paper is based on the introduction, In the introduction, this paper first introduces the definition of computer software related invention in other countries, and distinguishes the concept of computer software related invention from the concept of computer program. Then the background and purpose of this paper are introduced. The text is divided into four parts:. The first part introduces the Bilski case. This part reviews the whole case of Bilski case, points out its main points of dispute, then summarizes its established judgment standard, and finally discusses the significance of the standard established in this case to the adjudication of similar cases. The second part is an introduction to the six computer software-related cases decided by the court in the post Bilski period. These six cases were cited in the cases later adjudicated and used as the reasons for the judgment. So it is typical. This part introduces the six cases and points out the standard of judgment. The third part summarizes the general trend of patent suitability of computer software related inventions reflected in the above six cases and summarizes four rules. The fourth part first introduces the concept and characteristics of cloud computing combined with the trends reflected in the above six cases and makes a summary and comparison to explore the patentability of cloud computing in order to seek a suitable protection model for cloud computing.
