The 35 USC 102(e) date of a continuation of an international application (part 2)
Article Abstract:
The treatment of an international patent application's continuation differs from that accorded an international patent in 35 USC, moreover, whether the international application was filed in the US also has an influence. One statutory route for construing the 35 USC 102(e) date of a patent issuing from the continuation of a foreign filed international application is based upon the effect of 35 USC 363 on the 35 USC 102(e) date of the foreign filed international application. That is, the first route is based on the effect of any 35 USC 102(e) date available to a foreign filed international application. Other issues are considered.

To promote the progress of useful arts: American patent law and administration, 1787-1836
Article Abstract:
The intellectual property clause of the Constitution was an attempt to combine several earlier proposals about exclusive rights in written works and invention. The Constitution used the words "science and useful arts" to describe this concept, since when the Constitution was written "science" was synonymous with "knowledge" and "learning." At this time, "useful arts" meant practical trades, and it had a more pleasant sound than "manufactures."
