`
`Claim Language
`1. A method of processing video
`signals at a receiver
`station
`based on at least one informa-
`tion transmission, the method
`comprising the steps of:
`
`receiving information content
`and a first control signal in said
`at least one information trans-
`mission at said receiver sta-
`tion, said information content
`describing at least one of a prod-
`uct and a service;
`
`Evidence of Infringement
`Zynga provides ZyngaPoker as a “mobile game” to its users playing on per-
`sonal computing devices such as, for example, mobile handheld devices. A
`user of ZyngaPoker directly infringes Claim 1 by performing the method
`steps on a personal computing device. Zynga indirectly infringes Claim 1
`by inducing and contributing to the direct infringement of its users. Zynga
`directly infringes Claim 1 by testing and demonstrating ZyngaPoker. Unless
`indicated otherwise, each element in Claim 1 includes a “software limitation”
`under P.R. 3-1(g). Additional evidence of infringement may be supplied as
`needed in accordance with the Local Rules and the Docket Control Order fol-
`lowing the production of source code, source code documentation, flowcharts,
`and/or other source code related documents or testimony for ZyngaPoker.
`The priority date for Claim 1 is September 11, 1987.
`
`As described below, ZyngaPoker processes video signals at a receiver station
`based on at least one information transmission.
`
`ZyngaPoker receives at least one information transmission from a server, such
`as when additional game components are loading and ZyngaPoker receives
`information content such as advertisements, game graphics, animations, and
`user information and statistics (such as points/levels earned, resources ac-
`cumulated, prizes earned, purchases, and/or preferences). The information
`content describes a product or a service.
`
`The information transmission also includes a first control signal. For exam-
`ple, ZyngaPoker receives a first control signal that causes additional game
`components to load and to compute the user statistics to be displayed on
`the game interface. For example, as shown below, a loading screen indi-
`cates that ZyngaPoker received a control signal that causes additional game
`components to load.

`
`Evidence of Infringement
`
`ZyngaPoker also receives information content and control signals to provide
`messages to the game user, such as the availability of various resources (en-
`ergy, coins, chips, for example) available during game play, to remind the user
`to play other games, to respond to requests from other users, and to accept
`or give gifts to other game users. The information content is the content of
`the message, and the first control signal is the signal that causes the mes-
`sage to be displayed. The information content may include advertisements
`to purchase products or services, such as to purchase additional resources
`(e.g., Get Chips) or unlock special features. See below:

`
`generating a benefit datum in
`response to said first control
`signal by processing subscriber
`specific data at said receiver sta-
`tion;
`
`ZyngaPoker generates a benefit datum in response to the first control sig-
`nal by processing subscriber specific data at the receiver station on which
`ZyngaPoker is being played. For example, ZyngaPoker processes subscriber
`specific data (such as a game state stored at the receiver station, which in-
`cludes an amount of various resources the subscriber has accumulated) at the
`receiver station to generate a benefit datum. An example of such a benefit
`datum is an offer to purchase additional resources (e.g., Don’t shy away -
`buy some chips and play!) when the user does not have enough resources to
`complete a certain activity.

`based on at least one informa-
`tion transmission, the method
`comprising the steps of:
`
`receiving information content
`and a first control signal in said
`at least one information trans-
`mission at said receiver sta-
`tion, said information content
`describing at least one of a prod-
`uct and a service;
`
`Evidence of Infringement
`Zynga provides BubbleSafari as a browser-based game to its users via social
`networking websites and via the Zynga.com website. A user of BubbleSa-
`fari directly infringes Claim 1 by performing the method steps on a personal
`computing device. Zynga indirectly infringes Claim 1 by inducing and con-
`tributing to the direct infringement of its users. Zynga directly infringes
`Claim 1 by testing and demonstrating BubbleSafari. Unless indicated oth-
`erwise, each element in Claim 1 includes a “software limitation” under P.R.
`3-1(g). Additional evidence of infringement may be supplied as needed in
`accordance with the Local Rules and the Docket Control Order following the
`production of source code, source code documentation, flowcharts, and/or
`other source code related documents or testimony for BubbleSafari. The
`priority date for Claim 1 is September 11, 1987.
`
`As described below, BubbleSafari processes video signals at a receiver station

`tions, and user information and statistics (such as points/levels earned, re-
`sources accumulated, prizes earned, purchases, and/or preferences). The
`information content describes a product or a service.
`
`The information transmission also includes a first control signal. For exam-
`ple, BubbleSafari receives a first control signal that causes additional game
`components to load and to compute the user statistics to be displayed on the
`game interface. For example, as shown below, a loading bar indicates that
`BubbleSafari received a control signal that causes additional game compo-
`nents to load.
