Abstract : Strategic Intellectual property (IP) management requires strategic IP creation cost management. It is ideal to
be able to proactively estimate the cost of creating IP. This would facilitate the alignment of IP creation activities in order
to meet strategic management objectives. This paper proposes the use of Neuro-fuzzy model for strategic management
of IP cost management. The extraction of the variables for the model is based on the Activity Based Costing techniques.

3 MODEL DEVELOPMENT
In order to generate variables for the Neuro-fuzzy
systems, the Activity Based Costing (ABC) model is
used to allocate cost for the IP creation activities. The
main stages the first using statistical method to preprocess the data on the cost of IP creation, the second
using neural networks to develop relative final cost
weighing of predictors and lastly using fuzzy sets to
predict final cost. These stages are detailed below:
