Indian Institute Of Technology Madras has 6 pending office actions in Networking & Security. Each matter is assigned to a distinct examiner and a distinct art unit, producing a fully distributed examination profile.
NGUYEN, THIEN DANG is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. Since the identified workload is not concentrated, docketing and response preparation should be organized by application, while a common technical narrative can support consistency where appropriate.
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 (33%) |
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| §102 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (33%) |
