Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The invention described is a software patent, as it involves a novel feature or process executed by a computer. A trade secret would not be appropriate, as the information is being claimed as an invention and would need to be disclosed in a patent application. A cross-licensing agreement refers to the exchange of licenses between two companies, and patent infringement would not be applicable as the question does not suggest that there is an unauthorized use of a patented process or feature.
