The portfolio has 10 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The matters involve 10 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units, showing that prosecution is distributed broadly across examination personnel and technical groups.
DUAN, WENNA is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No single examiner accounts for a dominant share of the pending work, so portfolio management should emphasize matter-level tracking, consistent claim strategy, and coordination across the assigned units.
The difference between examiner and art-unit counts indicates that at least some art units handle more than one pending matter. Counsel may benefit from identifying recurring unit-level issues while preserving examiner-specific response tactics.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 3 (43%) |
| §103 only | 1 (14%) |
| §112 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (29%) |
