Abstract

A computer-enabled system, method, and medium is provided to correlate intellectual property analysis, for example, patent claim charts, with respect to the analyzed intellectual property and a target product or other intellectual property. Analysis are stored in a manner that enables searching across multiple analysis, and creating reports over multiple analysis. Units of the analysis are associated with a context, inherited, e.g., from the intellectual property document's assignment to a relative role within the organizational hierarchy; and associated with a context derived from the analysis itself. The analysis and respective documents and/or targets of the analysis can be searched/retrieved/analyzed from the hierarchical analysis, the context analysis, and/or the content of the analysis. This obviates the need to store each analysis as a separate document. The representation of the analysis may be static or dynamic. The target or annotations may be visually represented by an item such as a thumbnail or hyperlink, and the system automatically associates the item with the appropriate application program.
