Intellectual property · The IP schedule · Element
The assets
Each item of intellectual property, described by what it covers.
The part
What it is
Description matters because scope is what a right actually is. A trademark covers particular classes of goods; a patent covers particular claims.
Trade secrets should be listed by category rather than in detail, for the obvious reason.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries
Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
