#title: Xerox ./ Bulatov: tree visualisation patent inhibits optimisation
research

#descr: A Patent of Xerox Inc has cause Prof. Bulatov to withdraw his
opensource Java profile browser HyperProf from the Net.  HyperProf has
been very useful for analysing the optimisation potentials of
programs.  Its withdrawal from the research community is a loss both
to the developping mathematician, his user community and the end users
of the programs which are developped thereby.  So far we do not know
against which US patents HyperProf is claimed to infringe and what, if
any, their EP equivalents are.

#Eoo: Explanations by Prof. Bulatov

#Atr: An example of the kind of tree visualisation that Xerox has apparently
patented.
