DETAILED ACTION
This action is responsive to application filed on October 30, 2025.
Notice of Pre-AIA or AIA Status
The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA .
Priority
Receipt is acknowledged of certified copies of papers required by 37 CFR 1.55
Claim Objections
Claims 4-20 are objected to because of the following informalities:
Claims 4 and 7, which depend on claim 1, recite “A usage method of a multi-dimensional biomimetic data file, wherein it is applied to the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file according to claim 1”, should read “A usage method
Claims 5-6 and 8-20 recite “a multi-dimensional biomimetic data file”, it should read “the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file”
Appropriate correction is required.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 101
35 U.S.C. 101 reads as follows:
Whoever invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof, may obtain a patent therefor, subject to the conditions and requirements of this title.
Claims 1-3 are rejected under 35 USC 101 because the claimed invention is directed to non-statutory subject matter.
Referring to claim 1, is drawn to a data file that includes multiple fields and data. The recited elements (cell membrane, cell nucleus, and cytoplasm) are information content only.
The claim is directed to information per se, which does not fall within any statutory category.
Furthermore, the recited information constitutes non-functional descriptive material, as described in MPEP 2111.05. The information does not have a functional relationship between the data and any substrate, and does not impose any functional limitation on how the data is managed or used.
Therefore, the claim is directed to a non-statutory subject matter of information per se. Depended claims 2-3 do not cure the deficiency in claim 1 and are also rejected as being non-statutory.
Allowable Subject Matter
Claims 4 and 7 are objected to as being dependent upon a rejected base claim, but would be allowable if rewritten in independent form including all of the limitations of the base and any intervening claims. After sufficient search and analysis, Examiner concluded that the claim limitations in claim 1 are not taught by any prior reference found through search. The primary reason is the inclusion of the limitations “a multi-dimensional biomimetic data file comprising cell membrane data, cell nucleus data, and cytoplasm data, wherein the cell membrane data is first dimensional data, the cell nucleus data is second dimensional data, and the cytoplasm data is third dimensional data, and the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file is stored in the form of a binary stream, the cell membrane data comprises a first beginning position and a first length corresponding to the cell membrane data, a second beginning position and a second length corresponding to the cell nucleus data, and a third beginning position and a third length corresponding to the cytoplasm data, the cell nucleus data comprises element information for managing a file and storage information of the element information in the cytoplasm data, the cytoplasm data comprises data corresponding to the element information and a file body of the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file.”
No prior art was found teaching a multi-dimensional biomimetic data file comprising cell membrane data, cell nucleus data, and cytoplasm data where the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file is stored in the form of a binary stream, where the cell nucleus data comprises information for managing a file and storage information of the information in the cytoplasm data, where the cytoplasm data comprises a file body of the multi-dimensional biomimetic data file.
However, claim 1 is rejected under 35 USC 101 for being directed to a non-statutory subject matter. Incorporating the method of claims 4 and 7 in independent claim 1 would overcome the 101 rejections, and by further overcoming the claim objections of claims 4-20, it would put claims in condition for allowance.
Conclusion
The prior art made of record and not relied upon is considered pertinent to applicant's disclosure.
Zhu (US Application Pub. No. US 20240272992 A1) set forth a method for converting an original file into a three-dimensional file, storing the three-dimensional file in an initial storage location in three-dimensional space; changing the storage location of the three-dimensional file in three-dimensional space in accordance with a preset movement rule; restoring the three-dimensional file from a current storage location to an initial storage location according to a preset movement rule; restoring the three-dimensional file to an original file. The three-dimensional data of the present invention is stored in a process that enhances the difficulty of cracking by constantly changing the spatial storage location, thereby improving the security of the data.
