Intellectual Property License and Competition Policy

1.今年早些时候，我收集了相关的期刊、书籍、报告和文件，试图找到问题。我还参观了东京或大阪的一些大学图书馆和研究机构，那里复制了各种文献。今年我参加了“数字内容与竞争政策研究小组”(公平交易委员会)。这个研究小组与这项研究有很大的关系，所以在讨论中我得到了重要的建议。去年，我是“从竞争政策的角度研究新领域的专利问题”和“反垄断委员会软件许可协议等研究小组”(公平交易委员会)的成员，这些研究小组的报告与这项研究有关。我在“知识产权研究小组”(京都比较法中心)(2002年10月4日)上做了报告(我的报告将通过该中心的网站&lt；http://www.kclc.or.jp/&gt；).3.查阅今年，我发表了一些论文：(1)IT(信息技术)，知识产权与竞争政策，(2)著作权与反垄断法，(3)作为著作权作品的软件许可与反垄断法。(1)对知识产权和竞争政策的基本概念进行了概述和分析，包括许可问题。(2)重点论述了作为知识产权主体的著作权与《反垄断法》的关系。最后，(3)是本研究的主要成果。我对计算机软件研究了很长一段时间，(3)从反垄断法的角度考察了软件许可的各种问题。

1. In the earlier of this year, I had collected related journal, books, reports and documents and tried to find issues. I also visited some college libraries and research institutions in Tokyo or Osaka and there copied various documents.2. I took part in 'Study Group on Digital Contents and Competition Policy' (Fair Trade Commission) this year. This study group was much related to this research so I was given important suggestions during the discussion. I was a member of 'Study Group examining issues on Patents in New Fields from the view Points of Competition Policy' and 'Study Group on Software Licensing Agreements, etc. under the Antimonopoly' (Fair Trade Commission) last year and these study group's reports had relation to this research. I reported at 'the Study Group on Intellectual Property' (Kyoto Comparative Law Center) (10/4/2002) (My reports will be available via the Center's website<http://www.kclc.or.jp/>).3. This yea, I turned out some thesis ; (1) IT(Information Technology), Intellectual Property and Competition Policy, (2) Copyright an Anti-Monopoly Law, (3) Software Licenses as a Copyrighted Work and Anti-Monopoly Law. (1) is a general introduction and analysis about basically notion of intellectual property and competition policy including issues on licensing. (2) is to focus on the relation between copyright as main one of intellectual property and the Anti-Monopoly Act in detail. Lastly, (3) is a main fruit of this research. I have studied about computer software for a long time and (3) examines various problems on software licensing from view to the Anti-Monopoly Act.
