Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to quickly retrieve the same or similar patents in a large patent database.
Design/methodology/approach
The research is carried out through the analysis of the issue of patent examination, the type of patent infringement search and theories related to patent infringement determination and text mining.
Findings
The results show that the model improves the speed of patent search. It can quickly, accurately and comprehensively retrieve the same or equivalent patents as the imported patent claims.
Research limitations/implications
The patent infringement detection mainly focuses on the measurement of patent similarity in the implementation method. It is not mature, and there is still much room for improvement in research.
Practical implications
The model improves the efficiency of patent infringement detection, increases the accuracy of detection and protects the interests of patent stakeholders.
Originality/value
This study has great significance for improving the efficiency of patent examiners.

Abstract
This paper conducted a study on the energy-saving potential of a developed thermotropic window. Office buildings in different climate regions of China were compared in terms of heating, cooling and lighting energy demands. Results show that annual heating and cooling energy demands for office buildings differ largely, while lighting energy demand at different climates keeps a significant percentage of the total energy demand, ranging from 36.1% to 66.3%. Meanwhile, thermotropic windows achieve a great advantage in improving daylighting performance and in reducing the overall energy demand, by reducing the overall energy demand by 2.27%-8.7% and 10.1%-21.72%, respectively, compared to movable shading devices and Low-E windows. This means that this kind of thermotropic windows have a great potential in applications in different climatic regions and can be considered as a good substitute of solar shading devices and Low-E windows.

Abstract
Aim of the present monograph is the economic analysis of the role of MNEs regarding globalisation and digital economy and in parallel there is a reference and examination of some legal aspects concerning MNEs, cyberspace and e‐commerce as the means of expression of the digital economy. The whole effort of the author is focused on the examination of various aspects of MNEs and their impact upon globalisation and vice versa and how and if we are moving towards a global digital economy.
