`
`Patented Invention Drove
`Volume Growth at Exchanges
`
`From the summer of 2000
`through 2002, the electronic
`trading volumes on GLOBEX
`exploded. Based on my
`experience, I believe that [TT’s]
`MD Trader Product (which was
`launched in the fall of 2000)
`was a significant factor
`contributing to the electronic
`volume growth at the CME.

`As we have continually noted,…

`Even TT’s Archrival Says Invention Not Obvious
`
`A. I believe---I don't believe that the patents
`in dispute in this case were an obvious---
`how can I phrase this---an obvious
`continuation, if you like, from---from what
`Pats had. Pats had the means to place
`an order into a market, as we've seen,
`with a single-click. Pats had the means to
`display a price within a particular window
`statically. So, we had some of the
`ingredients, if you like, of the contents of
`this particular patent, but TT had also
`done some nonobvious stuff as well?

`Judge Moran’s Stated “Static” Construction
`
`Our earlier constructions remain, and we

`positions unless by manual
`re-centering or re-positioning.

`
`
`
`Judge Moran’s “Static” Construction
`
`Under our construction [of “static”], we find
`that no reasonable jury could determine that any
`eSpeed product that includes automatic
`re-centering of the price axis uncontrolled by the
`user…literally infringes on TT’s patents.

`
`The manual re-centering feature also avoided the
`possibility of mistakes when the price column
`moved automatically at the same time a trader
`wished to make a purchase. Of course, traders
`might make mistakes despite precautions built
`into the software. Nonetheless, to “provide the
`trader with improved efficiency and versatility in
`placing,” ’132 patent col.3 ll. 21–24, the price
`column cannot shift unexpectedly.

`Rehearing and Rehearing En Banc Denied April 21,
`2010.
`
`Background: Assignee of two patents for com-
`modities trading software brought infringement ac-
`tion against competitors. After construing patent
`claims, 2006 WL 3147697, 2007 WL 611258, the
`United States District Court for the Northern Dis-
`trict of Illinois, James B. Moran, Senior District
`Judge, entered summary judgment in favor of one
`competitor, 507 F.Supp.2d 854, granted summary
`judgment in part with regard to another competit-
`or's invalidity defense, 507 F.Supp.2d 883, denied
`motion for judgment as a matter of law (JMOL)
`with regard to inequitable conduct defense, 581
`F.Supp.2d 915, and ruled that infringement of pat-
`ents was not willful, 2008 WL 63233. Appeal was
`taken.
`
`Holdings: The Court of Appeals, Rader, Circuit
`Judge, held that:
`(1) trading software with mandatory re-centering
`features did not literally infringe patent;
`(2) software did not infringe under doctrine of equi-
`valents;
`(3) prosecution history estoppel precluded patentee
`from relying on the doctrine of equivalents;
`(4) infringement of patents was not willful;
`(5) claim limitation “single action of a user input
`device” in patent was sufficiently definite;
`(6) patents were entitled to priority of provisional
`
`application; and
`(7) inventor's purchase of custom software from
`software developer was not a sale of the software
`for purposes of the on-sale bar.
`
`Affirmed.
`
`Lourie, Circuit Judge, concurred in the result.
`
`Clark, District Judge, filed concurring opinion.

`
`Judge Holderman on “Static”
`
`Judge Moran’s ruling, in essence, was
`that TT’s patents did not cover automatic
`re-centering, that is, software in which
`the price levels automatically change
`positions when new data is received
`reflecting a change in the inside market.

`
`Judge Holderman on Modes
`
`Clearly, it was legally plausible for TT to
`believe it was entitled to display its
`patent marks when its products are
`being used in a mode where there is no
`possibility of automatic re-centering.
`Given the verdict in the eSpeed trial
`regarding the Futures View product and
`Judge Dow’s subsequent ruling in
`Rosenthal holding that the patents cover
`products that have both “static” and
`“automatic re-centering” modes of
`operation, this is eminently reasonable.

`
`MR. BENNETT: In one patent is the phrase,
`dynamic display, and in the other is, dynamically
`displaying. Judge Moran treated that in one
`heading within his Markman ruling. That he
`addressed. We have a disagreement, belief,
`and I don’t know whether in fact we believe that
`TT has accepted Judge Moran’s construction.
`We disagree with Judge Moran’s construction.
`* * * * *
`So of all the terms that have been addressed
`here today, dynamic display, dynamically
`displaying, was addressed by Judge Moran, we
`disagree to a certain degree with that
`construction.

`
`[M]ovement occurs simply
`because changed bid or ask
`values correspond to different
`prices in the static price display.
`

`
`Page 98 of 119
`
`
`
`Defendants Already Admitted That Movement
`Is Only Caused by Price Changes
`
`Movement can occur, for example, when
`the inside market changes, namely when
`a new best bid price or best ask price is
`entered, and/or when prices away from
`the inside market are entered.4
`
`4Simply changing the best bid quantity or
`best ask quantity need not necessarily
`result in movement of the inside market.
`The quantity traded can be less than the
`total amount available at a particular
`price. For the inside market to move, the
`change requires a change in the best bid
`or ask price.

`
`The first series of displays on page 16 demonstrates updating: while
`the quantities in the bid and ask columns are changing, no movement
`occurs because the change is insufficient to fill the order.

`“In Response To” Means “Based On”
`
`“Updating the first (second) indicator

`
`Defendants seek to add “under the hood” limitations that

`
`Directly in response to the computer receiving new market
`information (i.e., no intervening event)
`
`In real-time (i.e., immediately) as the computer receives new
`market information
`
`Continuously (i.e, showing each and every market update)

`
`[W]e accept plaintiff’s construction. “When
`the market changes” is construed as “at
`the time that new data reflecting a change
`in the inside market is received.” Plaintiff,
`and this construction, recognizes that
`“when” is not synonymous with
`“instantaneously.” Rather, “when”
`encompasses the concept that the update
`will not appear on the trader's screen until
`the software and/or computer receives,
`processes, and displays the new market
`information.
`
`103
`
`Page 103 of 119
`
`
`
`Defendants and All Parties Agreed That
`No “Real-Time” Requirement in Claim
`
`[C]onstru[ing] “when” to mean “at the
`precise moment” and “immediately”…
`improperly imports a temporal limitation,
`i.e., immediately, into the claims. As
`discussed above, however, there is no
`support whatsoever for a temporal
`limitation.
