Abstract | Protection of integrated circuits (ICs) is one of the most neglected fields within the area of information technology law. This article reviews the international developments in the protection of ICs and the case of Hong Kong. While Hong Kong has undoubtedly met international standards in this regard by creating a sui generis system for protecting IC topographies, it has yet to deal with a fundamental and unresolved problem, namely, the relationship between the sui generis system and the copyright system. This article investigates the cause of the problem and traces it to two possible legislative oversights in the Copyright Ordinance (Cap 528). |
