Abstract
Embodiments for determining ownership of intellectual property data by a processor. Various communications provided by one or more contributors relating to the intellectual property data are tracked using one or more immutable ledgers. The communications maintained in the one or more immutable ledgers may be analyzed to identify a degree of contribution by the one or more contributors to the intellectual property. A degree of ownership may be assigned to the intellectual property data for the one or more contributors according to the analyzed content.
