At-Memory Computing LP currently manages 8 pending office actions within the Computing & Software technology area. These actions are distributed across 7 distinct examiners, indicating a broad exposure to different individual perspectives at the patent office. The prosecution activity is further spread across 5 distinct art units, which suggests the portfolio covers a range of technical sub-specialties within the computing field.
SUNG IL CHO is the busiest examiner for the company, currently handling 2 pending office actions. This concentration under the busiest examiner is relatively low compared to the total of 8 pending office actions across the portfolio. The presence of 7 distinct examiners for 8 actions means that most examiners are only reviewing a small amount of the company's work at this time.
The diversity of 5 distinct art units implies that the company's legal strategy must account for varying examination standards and timelines across different divisions. With 8 pending office actions, the portfolio is active, yet the workload is not heavily concentrated in any art unit or under any examiner, as SUNG IL CHO only accounts for 2 of the pending matters.
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 | 2 (25%) |
| §103 only | 1 (12%) |
| §102 only | 2 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (38%) |
