Stanford Law School is currently building the Stanford Intellectual Property Litigation Clearinghouse (IPLC). The primary goal for this exciting project is to address the critical need for a comprehensive, online resource for scholars, policy makers, industry, lawyers, and litigation support firms in the field of intellectual property litigation.
The first release, the Patent Litigation Module, includes over 23,000 cases filed in U.S. district courts since 2000. The database includes real-time data summaries, industry indices, and trend analysis together with a full-text search engine, providing detailed and timely information that cannot be found elsewhere in the public domain.
George received his MS in Management Science in 2007 from the Stanford University School of Engineering and serves as director of engineering for the Clearinghouse. George’s research interests include intellectual property litigation and licensing, natural language processing, information retrieval and data mining, and technology transfer. George co-founded ShowMyTV, Inc., a video delivery solution for Local TV stations utilizing information retrieval and machine learning technology. Prior to Stanford, George was a Senior Product Manager at Sun Microsystems, responsible for the product requirements for the overall J2EE 1.4 Platform. Prior to Sun, George was a Marketing Director at Coral Energy, where he worked on release of the CoralConnectTM Web site, B2B Internet-based order entry and execution system. George has a MS degree in Physics from Yale University, where he conducted research in mathematical physics and string theory.
