First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of document management utilizing document corpora comprising:
- gathering a source corpus of documents in electronic form;
modeling the source corpus in terms of document and domain structure information to identify corpus enhancement parameters;
using a metalanguage to electronically tag the source corpus;
programming the corpus enhancement parameters into an intelligent agent;
and using the intelligent agent to search external repositories to find similar terms and structures, and return them to the source corpora, whereby the source corpus is enhanced to form a unicorpus.

20. A global documentation method comprising:
-
modeling a source corpus to determine search parameters;
providing the search parameters to an intelligent agent;
enhancing the source corpus by accessing resources outside of the source corpus with the intelligent agent, where said intelligent tags the modeled source corpus and retrieves resources according to the search parameters to create a first unicorpus of tagged documents;
replicating the first unicorpus in at least one other language to form a second unicorpus; and
selectively mining at least one unicorpus to perform a selected task. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A document management method comprising:
-
constructing models of a source corpus of documents;
deriving parameters from said models for the operation of an intelligent agent over at least one external document repository;
enhancing the source corpus of documents by adding selected documents retrieved by the intelligent agent to form an artificially enhanced corpus. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46)

47. A document management system operating according to a business method comprising:
-
providing document management services including translation and authoring services over a global information network to a customer, where the customer has a source corpus of documents to be managed;
accessing the source corpus with an intelligent agent to analyze the source corpus, identify selected objects within the source corpus, and tag the selected objects with a metatag, wherein the analysis results in the generation of document parameters programmed into the intelligent agent for searching of external document repositories, wherein said intelligent agent uses said parameters to identify and tag objects of interest in said external document repositories and selectively retrieve the objects to enhance the source corpus; and
tracking rights in said retrieved objects to determine a royalty payable to an owner of the rights. - View Dependent Claims (58)
