TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the law and policy of monetary awards, including exemplary damages and litigation cost recoveries, that go beyond the compensatory damages to which prevailing parties in patent litigation are normally entitled.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors address two types of monetary remedies for patent infringement: (1) recovery of the patentee's lost profits and (2) disgorgement of the infringer's profits.

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical analysis of the relative ages of patents litigated by practicing and non-practicing patentees is presented. And the authors find that NPEs are the dominant source of patent enforcement in the final few years of the patent term, accounting for more than two-thirds of all suits and over eighty percent of all patent infringement claims.

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical study of patent suits involving non-practicing entities (NPEs) in the U.K. between 2000 and 2010 was conducted, and the authors found that NPEs are responsible for 11% of all patent suits filed in the UK during this period.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a special category of cases in which an asserted patent is, or has been declared to be, essential to the implementation of a collaboratively developed voluntary consensus standard, and the holder of that patent has agreed to license it to implementers of the standard on terms that are fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND).
