Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has 6 pending office actions in Computing & Software. The portfolio uses 6 examiners and 6 art units, so each pending action is associated with its own examiner and art-unit setting.
DANGOL, ASHESH is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. This distribution leaves no repeated examiner assignment, making centralized claim strategy and clear technical documentation more important than examiner-specific repetition. Responses can still be coordinated at the portfolio level, but prosecution decisions will need to account for each separate examination context.
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 | 2 (33%) |
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| §112 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (33%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
