Zynga Slots (Mobile Game) – Infringement Contentions for U.S. Patent No. 7,860,131
`
`Claim Language
`wherein said computer program
`is operative to complete said
`portion when executed at said
`station of a particular kind, said
`execution of said computer pro-
`gram enabling a processor at
`said station of a particular kind
`to select a specific datum from
`said prestored data and place
`information, which results from
`a processing of said selected da-
`tum,
`into said portion to be
`completed, thereby completing
`said programming; and
`
`Evidence of Infringement
`When executed on the station, the Zynga Slots computer program is op-
`erative to complete the portion to be completed by, for example, accessing
`prestored data. Execution of the Zynga Slots computer program enables a
`processor at the station to select a specific datum from the prestored data.
`The selected datum is processed, and information resulting from the process-
`ing of the selected datum is placed into the portion to be completed, thereby
`completing the programming. For example, upon accessing prestored data,
`Zynga Slots displays the portion to be completed, such as the game image
`displayed at the station, and completes it by selecting and processing da-
`tum from the prestored data, such as game play state, the number of coins
`available, total earnings, or the user’s last win, and placing the resulting in-
`formation, such as the number of coins available to the user, in the portion
`to be completed.

`code related documents or testimony for Zynga Slots. The priority date for
`Claim 3 is September 11, 1987.
`
`Prestored data designates subscriber data in Zynga Slots. Such prestored
`data is used, for example, to maintain continuity between successive playings
`of Zynga Slots. For example, the prestored subscriber data may include game
`play state, the number of coins available, total earnings, or the user’s last
`win. As one example, when access to the Internet on the mobile device is
`disabled, as in the figure below, the subscriber data, such as the number
`of coins available to the user, is still available because it is prestored. The
`number of coins available to the user is available on the device as prestored
`data, as are other subscriber data.

`Claim Language
`wherein said computer program
`is operative to complete said
`portion when executed at said
`station of a particular kind, said
`execution of said computer pro-
`gram enabling a processor at
`said station of a particular kind
`to select a specific datum from
`said prestored data and place
`information, which results from
`a processing of said selected da-
`tum,
`into said portion to be
`completed, thereby completing
`said programming; and
`
`Evidence of Infringement
`When executed on the station, the Gems with Friends computer program is
`operative to complete the portion to be completed by, for example, accessing
`prestored data. Execution of the Gems with Friends computer program en-
`ables a processor at the station to select a specific datum from the prestored
`data. The selected datum is processed, and information resulting from the
`processing of the selected datum is placed into the portion to be completed,
`thereby completing the programming. For example, upon accessing prestored
`data, Gems with Friends displays the portion to be completed, such as the
`game image displayed at the station, and completes it by selecting and pro-
`cessing datum from the prestored data, such as profile names or game scores,
`and placing the resulting information, such as the user’s score, in the portion
`to be completed.
