ations of Origin of Goods=E2=80=9D.
In every =E2=80=9CPromyslova Vlasnist=E2=80=9D gazette, current classifica=
tion and numerical indexes of marks for goods and services are published. B=
esides the above-mentioned, the annual index to the gazette also comprises =
the numerical index of applications and the name index of trademark owners.=
During 2002, the official gazette =E2=80=9CPromyslova Vlasnist=E2=80=9D wa=

In the year 2002, the publication of scientific and practical periodical =
=E2=80=9CIntelektualna Vlasnist=E2=80=9D(=E2=80=9CIntellectual Property=E2=

ion of intellectual property were elucidated, official information, normati=
ve documents and comments on them, consultations of experts were included. =
The periodical is published in Ukrainian, its contents =E2=80=93 also in Ru=

Since January 1, 2002, the Ukrainian language version of the 8th edition=
of the International Classification of Goods and Services for the Purpose =
of Registration of Marks (the Nice Classification) has been used for classi=
fication of marks.
For indication of goods and services applicants are required to use the pr=
e-defined terms, which are used in the Nice Classification (the 8th edition=
).
No reclassification of goods and services according to the 8th edition of =
the Nice Classification was carried out in respect of the applications exam=
ined during 2002.
The trademark search file is composed of =E2=80=9CMarks for Goods and Serv=
ices=E2=80=9D automated system database and ROMARIN international registrat=
ion automated system database on CD-ROM, which is composed by the Internati=
onal Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
The Ukrainian Industrial Property Institute (Ukrpatent) information envi=
ronment is built up in accordance with its organizational structure. It is =
divided into domains; each of them attends to an appropriate subdivision. <=
br>
Besides domains, Ukrpatent information environment is divided into corresp=
onding sub-networks and corresponding virtual networks (VLAN =E2=80=93Virtu=
al Local Area). Appropriate servers, PDC1 and BDC2, manage the work of each=
of these domains. Ukrpatent local computer network is the core of the info=
rmational system. It includes servers, workstations, active network equipme=
nt and periphery devices.
In Ukrpatent, software and hardware are constantly upgraded, which allows =
to gradually turn to newer and more powerful systems of information process=
ing.
By December 31, 2002, the =E2=80=9CMarks for Goods and Services=E2=80=9D a=
utomated system database comprised data of 72284 applications for marks for=
goods and services. During 2002, the database was updated with the data of=
7565 applications.
Due to the alteration of the legislation, a modernization of the =E2=80=9C=
Marks for Goods and Services=E2=80=9D automated system was carried out, aim=
ing to make appropriate changes in all kinds of documents that are automati=
cally printed out.
For the purposes of the examination of applications for marks for goods an=
d services, the 8th edition of the International Classification of Goods an=
d Services was integrated into the =E2=80=9CMarks for Goods and Services=E2=
=80=9D automated system.
An interactive database =E2=80=9CMarks for Goods and Services Registered i=
n Ukraine=E2=80=9D is being developed; it will be connected to the Internet=
with the purpose to provide access to the information for the wide range o=
f users.
1PDC =E2=80=93 Primary Domain Controller, server storing the database of a=
ll network resources of the given domain.
2BDC =E2=80=93 Backup Domain Controller, server storing the copy of the da=
tabase of all network resources of the given domain. When PDC is disabled, =
BDC can temporarily act instead of it.

The State Department coordinates activities concerning the development, = improvement and functioning of the system for training of intellectual prop= erty specialists in Ukraine.
