`1.
`I, Sandeep Chatterjee, Ph.D., submit the following declaration (the
`“Declaration”) in connection with the proceeding identified above.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`I.
`2.
`I have been retained by counsel for MobileIron, Inc. (“MobileIron”)
`as a technical expert in connection with the proceeding identified above. I submit
`this declaration in support of Petitioner MobileIron’s Petition for Inter Partes
`Review (“Petition”) of United States Patent No. 8,117,344 (“the ’344 patent”) (Ex.
`1001) against Patent Owner Good Technology Corporation (“Good”).
`I understand that Good has filed a patent infringement lawsuit1 in the
`3.
`District of Delaware alleging infringement by MobileIron of claims 1-40
`(“asserted claims”). For purposes of this declaration, I limit my discussion to only
`the asserted claims of the ’344 patent. If, at any time in the future, additional
`claims are asserted by Good against MobileIron, I reserve the right to amend or
`supplement this declaration accordingly.
`
`BACKGROUND AND QUALIFICATIONS
`II.
`4.
`I am the Chief Executive Officer of Experantis LLC, a technology
`consulting company. Previously, I was the Executive Vice President and Chief
`Technology Officer of SourceTrace Systems, Inc., a technology and services
`company enabling the delivery of secure remote electronic services over landline
`and wireless telecommunications networks.
`5.
`I received my bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and
`Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1995. I received
`my master’s degree in Computer Science from the Massachusetts Institute of
`
`
`1 Good Technology Corporation et al. v. MobileIron, Inc., Civil Action No.
`14-1308-LPS-CJB (D. Del.), now pending in the Northern District of California
`under Civil Action No. 4:15-cv-01694.

`
`
`Technology (MIT) in 1997, and my doctorate in Computer Science from MIT in
`2001. I received a certificate of completion for an executive education program on
`global leadership from Harvard University in 2011. My doctoral dissertation at
`MIT, entitled “Composable System Resources for Networked Systems,” involving
`networked client architectures and systems, was selected as one of the top
`inventions in the history of MIT’s Laboratory for Computer Science. This
`invention is showcased in a time capsule at the Museum of Science in Boston,
`Massachusetts.
`6.
`I have extensive experience in architecting, developing, optimizing,
`deploying and managing complex computing systems, including mobile and
`wireless computing systems, throughout the world. I have developed mobile and
`distributed computing systems, including hardware and software for these systems.
`I have invented, architected, and led the development (product, QA,
`documentation) as well as the initial sales & marketing efforts for key eBusiness,
`mobile, Web services, and J2EE middleware products and solutions at
`SourceTrace Systems, Cyndeo, Satora Networks, Bluestone Software, and
`Hewlett-Packard.
`7. While at Cyndeo, through a contract between Hewlett-Packard and the
`United States Agency for International Development (USAID), I led the
`development of a software system that enabled customers to use their mobile
`phones and other handsets to connect with the core banking systems of banks and
`other financial institutions, and perform transactions without having to go into
`bank branches. This solution used authenticated secure transactions and supported
`communications between a plurality of client devices and servers.
`8.
`Later, after SourceTrace Systems’ acquisition of Cyndeo, I led the
`expansion of this solution into multiple countries and into multiple industries.
`Specifically, through our licensing agreement in Central America with Telefónica,
`
`
`
`
`6
`
`
`
`MobileIron, Inc., Ex. 1011- Page 007
`
`

`

`
`
`one of the largest cellular and telecommunications companies in the world, this
`solution was deployed in various industries, including logistics and asset
`management and customer relationship management. Additionally, through our
`strategic partnership with NABARD in India, this solution was deployed in
`multiple banks throughout India. In 2010, Bloomberg Television selected this
`system as a Bloomberg Innovation, and the system was showcased on
`Bloomberg’s worldwide television channels.
`9.
`In 2011, I was named a Young Global Leader. This honor, bestowed
`each year by the World Economic Forum, recognizes and acknowledges the top
`leaders—all below the age of 40—from around the world for their professional
`accomplishments, commitment to society, and potential to contribute to shaping
`the future of the world.
`10. From 1997, I was the Entrepreneur-in-Residence at
`FidelityCAPITAL, the venture capital arm of Fidelity Investments. In 1999, I
`founded and served as President and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Satora
`Networks, which developed tools and technologies for building appliances and
`services for the Internet using wireless and other technologies to extend it beyond
`the desktop.
`11.
`In 2001, I joined Bluestone Software’s Mobile Middleware Labs as a
`Senior Engineer developing applications and systems infrastructure for enterprise
`Java/J2EE, Web services, and enterprise mobile solutions. After the completion of
`Hewlett-Packard’s (“HP”) acquisition of Bluestone, I became a Senior Member of
`the Technical Staff at HP’s Middleware Division. I was responsible for
`architecting and developing the company’s next-generation Web services platform
`for enterprise as well as mobile environments, known as the Web Services
`Mediator.

`
`

`

`
`
`12.
`I was part of the Expert Group that developed the JSR-00172 J2ME
`(Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition) Web Services Specification, the worldwide
`standard for mobile Web services, which is a type of a remote procedure call
`(RPC). I have been an invited speaker at conferences throughout the world,
`including the 2003 Automated Software Engineering Conference, the 2003 and
`2004 International Multiconference in Computer Science & Computer
`Engineering, the 2004 IASTED International Conference on Software Engineering
`and Applications, and the 2004 IEEE International Conference on e-Technology,
`e-Commerce, and e-Service. I served as the General Chair for the 2004
`International Symposium on Web Services and Applications.
`13.
`I am the co-author, with James Webber, of the book “Developing
`Enterprise Web Services: An Architect’s Guide” (published by Prentice-Hall in
`2004). This book has been adopted by over 100 universities and colleges around
`the world and has been translated or reprinted in numerous countries around the
`world.
`14.
`I also have served as a columnist on mobile and enterprise software
`systems for a number of IT magazines, including Java Boutique and Dataquest.
`15.
`I have attached a more detailed list of my qualifications as Appendix
`A2 to this Declaration.
`16. Experantis is being compensated for my time working on this matter
`at an hourly rate plus expenses. Experantis has no personal or financial stake or
`interest in the outcome of the present proceeding.
`
`
`2 Appendices are attached to this Declaration. The Declaration also
`references exhibits to the Petition.

`
`
`III. MATERIALS CONSIDERED
`17.
`I have considered information from various sources in forming my
`opinions. Besides drawing from almost two decades of research and development
`in the area of distributed computing systems, I also have reviewed the following
`documents: (a) the ’344 patent (Ex. 1001); (b) the prosecution file history of the
`’344 patent (including Ex. 1002-1005, 1007, 1008.); (c) U.S. Patent No. 6,131,116,
`to which the ’344 patent claims priority, (Ex. 1009); (d) U.S. Patent No. 7,287,271,
`to which the ’344 patent claims priority, (Ex. 1010); (e) U.S. Patent No. 5,586,260
`to Hu (“Hu”) (Ex. 1012); (f) U.S. Patent No. 5,809,415 to Rossmann
`(“Rossmann”) (Ex. 1013); (g) U.S. Patent No. 5,923,756 to Shambroom
`(“Shambroom”) (Ex. 1014); (h) U.S. Patent No. 5,953,005 to Liu (“Liu”) (Ex.
`1016); (i) U.S. Patent No. 7,079,649 to Bramhill (“Bramhill”) (Ex. 1017); (j) U.S.
`Patent No. 5,276,444 to McNair (“McNair”) (Ex. 1018); (k) MobileIron’s Petition
`for Inter Partes Review of the ’344 patent (the “Petition”) to which this
`Declaration is being submitted as Exhibit No. 1011; and (l) the other documents
`and references as cited herein. I reviewed the Petition in detail and agree with both
`its analysis and conclusions.
`
`IV. LEGAL STANDARDS
`18.
`I have relied on instructions from counsel as to the applicable legal
`standards to use in arriving at my opinions in this declaration.
`19.
`I have been informed and understand that patent claims are construed
`from the perspective of one of ordinary skill in the art at the time the claimed
`invention was made, and that during this proceeding, claims are to be given their
`broadest reasonable construction consistent with the specification.
`20.
`I have been informed and understand that a patent claim is invalid
`because of anticipation when every element of the claim is described in a single
`prior art reference, such that the elements are arranged as required by the claim. I
`
`
`
`
`9
`
`
`
`MobileIron, Inc., Ex. 1011- Page 010
`
`

`

`
`
`have been informed and understand the description of a claim element in a prior art
`reference can be express or inherent. For a prior art reference to describe a claim
`element inherently, the claim element must be necessarily present. Probabilities
`are not sufficient to establish inherency.
`21.
`I have also been informed and understand that the subject matter of a
`patent claim is obvious if the differences between the subject matter of the claim
`and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been
`obvious at the time the invention was made to a person having ordinary skill in the
`art to which the subject matter pertains. I have also been informed that the
`framework for determining obviousness involves considering the following
`factors: (i) the scope and content of the prior art; (ii) the differences between the
`prior art and the claimed subject matter; (iii) the level of ordinary skill in the art;
`and (iv) any objective evidence of non-obviousness.
`22.
`I further understand that the claimed subject matter would have been
`obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art if, for example, it results from the
`combination of known elements according to known methods to yield predictable
`results, the simple substitution of one known element for another to obtain
`predictable results, use of a known technique to improve similar devices in the
`same way or applying a known technique to a known device ready for
`improvement to yield predictable results. I have also been informed that the
`analysis of obviousness may include recourse to logic, judgment, and common
`sense available to the person of ordinary skill in the art that does not necessarily
`require explication in any reference.
`
`LEVEL OF ORDINARY SKILL IN THE ART
`V.
`23.
`In my opinion, a person of ordinary skill in the art pertaining to the
`’344 patent at the relevant date would have an undergraduate degree in computer
`science and two to four years of experience in the design of distributed computing
`
`
`
`
`10
`
`
`
`MobileIron, Inc., Ex. 1011- Page 011
`
`

`

`
`
`systems. Relevant professional or practical experience or degrees in other subject
`areas where a person would gain experience with distributed computing systems
`may also suffice.
`24. Based on my education and experience in the field of computer
`science set forth above, I believe I am qualified to provide opinions about how one
`of ordinary skill in the art at the relevant time would have interpreted and
`understood the ’344 patent and the prior art discussed herein.
`
`VI. BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE ASSERTED PATENT
`
`Summary of the ’344 Patent
`A.
`25. The ’344 patent, titled “Global Server for Authenticating Access to
`Remote Services,” was filed on June 22, 2009 and is a continuation or a
`continuation-in-part of a number of other patent applications. The ’344 patent
`issued on February 14, 2012.
`26. The ’344 patent discloses “a system and methods for providing global
`and secure access to services and to unified (synchronized) workspace elements in
`a computer network.” (’344 patent at 2:25-27.) A user can access a global server
`using any terminal that has a web engine and is connected using a computer
`network to the global server. (See id. at 2:28-31.) A web engine “may use
`HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and HyperText Markup Language (HTML)
`to interface with the global server.” (Id. at 6:38-41.)
`27. The patent explains that a “client stores a first set of workspace data,
`and is coupled via a computer network to a global server.” (Id. at 2:32-33.) The
`client is “configured to synchronize selected portions of the first set of workspace
`data (comprising workspace elements) with the global server, which stores
`independently modifiable copies of the selected portions.” (Id. at 2:33-37.) The
`patent further discloses that the global server may also store workspace data not
`received from the client, such as e-mail sent directly to the global server. (See id. at
`
`
`
`
`11
`
`
`
`MobileIron, Inc., Ex. 1011- Page 012
`
`

`

`
`
`2:37-39.) Accordingly, the global server stores a second set of workspace data.
`(See id. at 2:39-40.)
`28. Figure 1 of the patent (reproduced below) is a block diagram
`illustrating a secure data-synchronizing remotely accessible network in accordance
`with the claimed subject matter of the ’344 patent.
`
`
`29. The patent also discloses that “[t]he global server is configured to
`identify and authenticate a user attempting to access it from a remote terminal, and
`is configured to provide access based on the client configuration either to the first
`set of workspace data stored on the client or to the second set of workspace data
`stored on the global server.” (Id. at 2:40-45.) Specifically, the patent discloses
`that “[t]he global server 115 includes a security system 160 for providing only an
`authorized user with secure access through firewalls to services.” (Id. at 5:48-50.)
`The security system may perform identification and authentication services and
`
`
`
`
`12
`
`
`
`MobileIron, Inc., Ex. 1011- Page 013
`
`

`

`
`
`may accordingly enable multiple levels of access based on the level of
`identification and authentication. (See id. at 5:50-53.)
`30. The ’344 patent discloses two authentications. In one authentication,
`the global server authenticates the user with respect to itself. Fig. 10 shows the
`authentication with respect to the global server (element 1010, “confirm user
`access privileges”). To perform the authentication, the global server can use a
`certificate, secret password, digital signature technology, or a challenge/response
`technique.” (Id. at 11: 53-55.)
`31.
`In another authentication, the global server authenticates the user with
`respect to the service server. The global server retrieves authentication
`information for the service from a keysafe stored on the global server. (Id. at
`13:23-37.) The global server then sends the retrieved authentication information to
`the service to authenticate itself as user at the service server. (Id. at 13:26-40.) If
`the global server successfully authenticates, then the global server acts as a proxy
`for the remote terminal to the requested service. (Id. at 13:36-44.)
`
`’344 Patent Prosecution History
`B.
`32. On June 22, 2009, Application No. 12/489,326 (the “’326
`Application”) (Ex. 1002) was filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
`(“USPTO”) with 45 total claims, including five independent claims. On February
`3, 2011, the USPTO issued a Non-Final Rejection of all of the claims. (Ex. 1003.)
`The Examiner rejected claims 66-85 based on 35 U.S.C. § 101, and rejected claims
`46-65 based on 35 U.S.C. § 112. (Id.)

`
`34. On July 20, 2011, the Applicant responded to the Office Action, and
`amended claims 46, 62 and 82. (Ex. 1007.) The Applicant traversed the rejection
`by arguing that the prior art patent cited by the Examiner (Mashayeki) “does not
`describe that the workstation (210) communicates with a server node that hosts the
`desired application via the controller (207) and the directory service (DS).” (Id. at
`12.) The Applicant further asserted that “[c]onversely, amended Claim 46
`describes that the global server includes a processor that conducts authenticated
`communication with the service server on behalf of the user, via the second
`communication link, and also provides the user of the remote user terminal with
`authenticated access to the service by conducting authenticated
`communication with the remote terminal via the first communication link”
`(Id. at 12-13 (emphasis in original.)) The Applicant also stated that “Claim 66
`recites features substantially similar to those recited in amended Claim 46.” (Id. at
`13.)
`
`35. On October 18, 2011, the USPTO issued a Notice of Allowance. (Ex.
`1008.) . The Applicant paid the issue fee on January 11, 2012, and the ’326
`Application issued as U.S. Patent No. 8,117,344 on February 14, 2012.
