1. Invention capital = Non-practicing entity(NPE) = Patent troll(pejorative term) = Patent intermediary = IP intermediary

2. Government funding of research is a 'charity'. They are donations, rather than investment. Not a reliable source of funding. Usually supports narrow disciplines. 

3. Some large patent trolls or NPEs
- InterDigital, NTP, ForgentNetworks, TechSearch, Acacia Research, Intellectual Ventures(Has over 30,000 patents aiming to become a 'full service invention capital firm'

4. Targets of patent trolls
- during 2003 ~ 2006. 324 patent litigations against major tech firms in Asia and US
- 123 cases against American firms
- 201 cases against Asian firms

5. How do you evaluate these NPEs? Should the government regulate them? What can manufacturing firms such as Samsung do to protect themselves?
