Abstract

Abstract:

In the current development process of information technology, open source software and standards are deeply integrated and complement each other’s strengths, coordinating to promote technological innovation. At the same time, the combination of open source software and standards has raised concerns about intellectual property conflicts. This paper first compares the differences between open source software and standards. Then, it analyzes the model coordinating open source software and standards as well as the advantages. On this basis, it elaborates on the possible intellectual property issues in the coordinated development of open source software and standards in two aspects: intellectual property policy conflicts and intellectual property risks.

Key words: open source, standard, intellectual property
