Industry-University Cooperation Foundation Korea Aerospace University is currently navigating 2 pending office actions within the Networking & Security sector. These actions are distributed across 2 distinct examiners, indicating that the portfolio is not concentrated under a single individual's review. This distribution requires the applicant to manage two separate sets of examiner preferences and timelines simultaneously.
The prosecution activity is further spread across 2 distinct art units. This suggests that the technologies being patented may span different sub-specialties within the broader networking field. CHANG, DANIEL is identified as the busiest examiner for this portfolio, currently responsible for 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This means that CHANG, DANIEL handles 1 of the 2 pending office actions currently on the docket.
For practitioners, the presence of 2 distinct art units and 2 distinct examiners means that prosecution strategies cannot be entirely uniform. Each examiner may have different interpretations of the 2 pending office actions. With 1 busiest examiner pending action assigned to CHANG, DANIEL, the applicant must balance the specific feedback from this examiner against the requirements of the second examiner handling the remaining pending office action.
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 | 1 (33%) |
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
