`Petitioner Microsoft Corporation’s Notice of Appeal
`
`Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §§ 141, 142, and 319, and in accordance with 37
`
`C.F.R. §§ 90.2-90.3, Petitioner Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) appeals to the
`
`United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from the Final Written
`
`Decision of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“Board”) entered on August 11,
`
`2016 in IPR2015-00483 (Paper No. 81) (“Final Written Decision”), and from all
`
`underlying findings, determinations, rulings, opinions, orders, and decisions
`
`regarding the inter partes reviews (IPR2015-00483 and the IPRs consolidated
`
`and/or joined with it) of U.S. Patent No. 5,894,554 (the “554 Patent”).
`
`
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a)(3)(ii), Microsoft states that the issues
`
`on appeal include, but are not limited to: the Board’s determination that claims 12-
`
`49 of the 554 Patent have not been shown to be unpatentable; the Board’s
`
`construction of those claims; the Board’s consideration of the expert testimony,
`
`prior art, and other evidence in the record; and the Board’s factual findings,
`
`conclusions of law, or other determinations supporting or related to those issues, as
`
`well as all other issues decided adversely to Microsoft in any orders, decisions,
`
`rulings, and opinions.
`
`This Notice of Appeal is being e-filed with the Clerk’s Office for the United
`
`States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, along with payment of the required
`
`docketing fees. In addition, a copy of this Notice of Appeal is being filed
`
`simultaneously with the Patent Trial and Appeal Board.
