【日經BP社報導】美國IBM以該公司的專利被侵害為由，向美國國際貿易委員會（International Trade Commission：ITC）起訴台灣華碩電腦(ASUSTek Computer)及其北美子公司Asus Computer International（英文發佈資料）。IBM稱華碩等的電腦產品及部件侵害了IBM的3項專利，要求禁止相關產品及部件銷往美國。
IBM聲稱被侵害專利是美國專利號為“5,008,829”、“5,249,741”、“5,371,852”的3項專利。“5,008,829”是關於供電的專利，“5,249,741”是關於自動風扇速度控制的專利，“5,371,852”是關於使電腦集群在網路上顯示為單一主機的方法和裝置的專利。IBM稱，華碩的筆記本電腦及空機（半成品）、伺服器、路由器、部件等電腦相關產品侵害了這3項專利。
IBM還表示，之前曾多次嘗試與華碩等簽訂專利授權合約。“華碩若不與IBM簽訂專利授權合約，就必須停止使用與IBM擁有的專利相關的技術”（IBM）。（記者：迦納 徵子） ■

IBM Files ITC Complaint against ASUSTeK
ARMONK, N.Y. - 06 Dec 2007: IBM today announced it has filed a complaint against ASUSTeK (based in Taiwan) and its North American subsidiary, ASUS Computer International, with the United States International Trade Commission.
The complaint details the infringement of IBM patents by certain ASUSTeK computer products and components, and requests an exclusion order against the importation of infringing ASUSTeK computer products and components into the United States.
IBM has made repeated attempts to reach a licensing agreement between the companies. IBM’s position has been -- and remains -- that ASUSTeK either must license or stop using IBM's patented technology.
IBM’s complaint identifies three patents that are infringed by ASUSTeK products imported into the U.S. These three patents cover important aspects of computer systems, including power supplies, computer cooling and computer clustering capabilities.
The infringing ASUSTeK computer products include notebook computers, so-called barebones computer systems, servers, routers and various computer components.
IBM annually invests billions of dollars in research and development and has extensive patents and other intellectual property in areas including personal computing, servers, networking, semiconductors and other computer components.
The specific patents asserted in the IBM complaint are:
1. U.S. Patent No. 5,008,829:
Personal computer power supply
2. U.S. Patent No. 5,249,741:
Automatic fan speed control
3. U.S. Patent No. 5,371,852:
Method and apparatus for making a cluster of computers appear as a single host on a network
The United States International Trade Commission is an independent federal agency with authority to bar the importation of products that infringe U.S. patents.
