Analysis of Patent Examination Effort Distribution based on the Queuing Theory

In this paper, we present a mathematical model based on the queuing theory that simulates the examination process in a patent office, including its relation with the applicants. Through this statistical model, this study aims at evaluating the examination effort distribution among all examination st...
