The Industry-University Cooperation Foundation Korea Aerospace University has 3 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These matters are handled by 3 distinct examiners, meaning each examiner is currently reviewing an application. CHANG, DANIEL is the busiest examiner with 1 pending action.
The portfolio's activity is divided among distinct art units. This ratio between pending office actions, examiners, and art units suggests that each filing is being treated as a separate technical endeavor within the Networking & Security sector. The pending office actions represent the total current workload requiring response.
Practitioners should prepare for different examination environments, as the distinct art units likely have different procedural nuances. Because no single examiner handles more than 1 pending action, there is no opportunity to leverage a single relationship for multiple cases. The distinct examiners will each bring a unique perspective to the 3 pending office actions currently under review, requiring a tailored strategy for each individual matter.
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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
| §102 only | 1 (33%) |
| §112 only | 1 (33%) |
