`
`Defendant epicRealm Licensing LP epicRealm submits this brief in opposition to
`
`Oracles Motion for Summary Judgment of Noninfringement Oracles motion suffers from
`
`numerous flawsit ignores the law it contradicts Oracles fact witnesses it contradicts Oracles
`
`expert witnesses it even contradicts Oracles proposed claim constructions and Oracles
`
`contemporaneously filed brief for summaryjudgment of invalidity And all
`
`that is before
`
`epicRealm presents its abundant evidence proving infringement Oracles shotgun approach can
`
`only result in the conclusion that Oracle has no reason to argue that this issue should not go to
`
`the jury Oracles motion for summary judgment of noninfringement should therefore be denied
`
`in its entirety
`
`NATURE AND STAGE OF THE PROCEEDINGS
`
`This patent action was filed in 2006 and is now scheduled for
`
`two-week jury trial
`
`commencing January 12 2009 Pursuant to the Stipulated Amendment
`
`to Joint Discovery Plan
`
`and Scheduling Order D.I 191 entered by the Court on July 18 2008 the deadline for filing
`
`oppositions to summaryjudgment motions is August 21 2008
`
`II
`
`SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT
`
`The Court should deny Oracles motion in its entirety
`
`The Accused Oracle Products literally infringe all of the asserted claims Oracles
`
`attempt
`
`to argue differently relies on Oracle trying to impose new additional
`
`requirements that
`
`are not part of either partys claim construction Oracle relies extensively on these new
`
`additional
`
`requirements in its noninfringement motion while completely ignoring them in its
`
`contemporaneously filed invalidity motion
`
`In particular Oracle argues here that the Accused Oracle Products do not infringe
`
`based on Oracles new requirements for the intercepting releasing and dispatcher

`
`limitations In addition to contradicting its invalidity brief Oracles arguments contradict
`
`its
`
`own expert witnesses
`
`Oracles operation of Oracle.com directly infringes
`
`Oracles arguments on indirect infringement fail
`
`to acknowledge the relevant
`
`law
`
`EpicRealms evidence requires denial of Oracles motion with respect
`
`to indirect infringement
`
`The Accused Oracle Products also infringe under the doctrine of equivalents
`
`EpicRealm is entitled to raise the doctrine of equivalents in response to Oracles ever-changing
`
`positions on what
`
`is required to show literal
`
`infringement

`
`Pursuant to the Joint Discovery Plan and Scheduling Order the parties exchanged
`

`

`

`server software or machine running such
`HTTP-compliant
`software that receives Web page requests and returns Web pages
`in response to the reqests
`Oracle no longer wants the Court to construe other requests
`
`In sum after the close of discovery Oracle changed its constructions for the page
`
`server Web server and releasing limitations Oracle maintained its constructions for the
`
`intercepting and dispatcher
`
`limitations Oracle withdrew its proposed construction for
`
`other requests because Oracle wants to try to give other requests
`
`different meaning now at
`
`least when Oracle is arguing noninfringement Similarly despite previously maintaining its
`
`position Oracle now argues that the intercepting and dispatcher limitations have additional
`
`requirements for epicRealm to prove infringement but not for Oracle to prove invalidity
`
`IV
`
`ARGUMENT
`
`Oracles motion should be denied in its entirety
`
`The Court Should Deny Oracles Motion For Summary Judgment Of No
`Infringement Because Each Of The Accused Oracle Products Literally
`Infringes All Of The Asserted Claims
`
`Although epicRealm contends that five independent claims of two patents are infringed
`
`by three different Oracle Products Oracle contends that summary judgment of noninfringement
`
`is proper for every claim and every product because the Accused Oracle Products fail
`
`to meet
`
`three limitations in the same manner regardless of the claim Specifically for each of the
`
`Accused Oracle Products and for each of the asserted claims Oracle argues
`
`the Accused
`
`Oracle Products do not intercept
`
`request for
`
`dynamic web page at Web server
`
`the
`
`Web serve in the Accused Oracle Products is not released by
`
`page server and
`
`the

`
`Page 12 of 48 PagelD
`
`6880
`
`Accused Oracle Products do not dispatch
`
`request from dispatcher to
`
`page server
`
`Each of Oracles arguments not only ignores the parties claim constructions but also contradicts
`
`Oracles own expert witnesses and Oracles own invalidity positions including those set forth in
`
`Oracles contemporaneously
`
`filed motion for summaryjudgment of invalidity Of course
`
`epicRealm also provides affirmative evidence that the three Accused Oracle Products literally
`
`infringe all of the asserted claims Therefore this Court should deny Oracles motion for
`
`sunnnary judgment
`
`As set forth below the Accused Oracle Products literally infringe Claims 1-5 and 7-11 of
`
`the 554 Patent1 and Claims
`
`and 16 of the 335 Patent.2 Each of the Accused Oracle Products
`
`literally meets every limitation of the asserted claims including those disputed by Oracle
`
`The Accused Oracle Products Literally Infringe Claim Of The 554
`Patent
`
`Oracle does not dispute that each of the three Accused Oracle Products literally meets
`
`nearly all of the limitations of Claim of the 554 Patent Oracle only argues that the Accused
`
`Oracle Products do not literally meet the intercepting releasing and dispatcher
`
`limitations
`
`Oracle is wrong on all
`
`three counts
`
`The Accused Oracle Application Server Products Literally
`Infringe Claim Of The 554 Patent
`
`The Accused Oracle Application Server Products literally infringe Claim of the 554
`
`Patent under both parties constructions 2d Finkel DecI Ex
`
`at 1-20 Oracle only argues
`
`that
`
`the Accused Oracle Application Server Products do not intercept
`
`request for
`
`EpicRealm does not assert that the Accused Oracle Database Products infringe Claims
`of the 554 Patent
`
`and
`
`detailed description of the three Accused Oracle Products is provided in EpicRealms
`Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for Partial Summary Judgment of Literal Infringement

`
`dynamic web page at Web server
`
`the Web server in the Accused Oracle Application
`
`Server Products is not released by page server and
`
`the Accused Oracle Application
`
`Server Products do not dispatch
`
`request from dispatcher to
`
`page server As set forth
`
`below each of Oracles noninfringement arguments fails
`
`The Accused Oracle Application Server Products
`Literally Meet The Jntercepting Limitation
`
`Oracle argues that the Accused Oracle Application Server Products do not meet the
`
`intercepting limitation D.I 205 at 30-31 EpicRealm proposed that intercepting said
`
`request at said Web serve means intercepting the handling of
`
`request at Web server
`
`while Oracle proposed receiving
`
`request at the Web server machine and diverting the request
`
`before the Web server executable can process the request The Accused Oracle Application
`
`Server Products literally meet the intercepting limitation under either partys construction
`
`2d
`
`Finkel Decl Exs
`
`Oracles infringement expert Dr Clark opined that the Accused Oracle Products do not
`
`infringe because they do not meet the intercepting limitation Oracles validity expert Dr
`
`Shamos however effectively conceded that the Accused Oracle Products meet the
`
`intercepting limitation
`
`in any system in which the Web server
`Intercepting is inherent
`processes some but not all requests Some mechanism must be
`used to discriminate between the requests the Web server will
`handle and which it will not That mechanism which prevents the
`Web server from handling certain requests intercepts their
`handling within the Texas Courts construction.3
`
`Ex 13 Shamos Rpt 94 Dr Shamos later elaborated In the case where the web server is
`
`processing some requests and not others then
`
`determination is being made as to which ones it
`
`will process and which ones it isnt Thats what
`
`have taken to be intercepting Ex
`
`3The Texas Courts construction is the same as epicRealms construction here

`
`Oracle next argues that the Accused Oracle Application Sewer Products do not meet the

`
`The Accused Oracle Application Server Products
`Literally Meet The Dispatcher Limitation
`
`Oracle argues that the Accused Oracle Application Server Products do not meet the
`
`dispatcher
`
`limitation Oracle offer no argument with respect to the dispatching limitation
`
`Oracle contends that dispatcher requires construction and should be construed as
`
`software
`
`program for determining which page server should process
`
`dynamic Web page generation
`
`request EpicRealm contends
`
`that the term dispatcher does not need construction and should
`
`be given its ordinary meaning The Accused Oracle Application Server Products literally meet
`
`the dispatcher limitation under both its ordinary meaning and Oracles construction 2d
`
`Finkel Decl
`
`12
`
`Oracle does not dispute that mod_oc4j meets the ordinary meaning and Oracles
`
`construction of dispatcher
`
`It is undisputed that mod_oc4j using the metric-based load
`
`balancing algorithms performs dispatching under either partys construction Thus mod oc4j
`
`is dispatcher under the ordinary meaning In addition mod_oc4j meets Oracles construction
`
`of dispatcher because it
`
`is
`
`software program that determines which page server should
`
`process
`
`dynamic Web page generation request Id 13
`
`Oracle nonetheless argues that the Accused Oracle Application Server Products do not
`
`meet the dispatcher limitation because Oracle tries to impose
`
`new requirement
`
`for
`
`infringement but not invalidity that the dispatcher must be
`
`separate executable process from
`
`the Web server Neither partys construction however
`
`requires that the dispatcher be
`
`separate executable process from the Web server Therefore Oracles motion should be
`
`denied ABB Automation 254

`
`Oracle has two bases for now arguing that the dispatcher has to be
`
`separate
`
`executable process from the Web server Oracle argues that if the same executable was both
`
`the Web server and the dispatcher
`
`it would contradict
`
`the plain language of the patent
`
`claims which require routing
`
`requestfrom the Web server to the dispatcher and
`
`common sense if the Web server is the dispatcher
`
`there would be no routing to the
`
`dispatcher Oracle Br 32 emphasis original Oracles argument
`
`fails for three reasons
`
`-----
`---
`
`---
`
`Second Oracle misunderstands the law An apparatus claim describing
`
`combination
`
`of components does not require that the function of each be performed by
`
`separate structure in
`
`the apparatus The claimed and accused devices must be viewed and evaluated as whole Sun
`
`Studs Inc
`
`ATA Equip Leasing Inc 872 F.2d 978 989 Fed Cir 1989 overruled in part on
`
`other grounds by
`
`Aukerman Co R.L Chaides Coust Co 960 F.2d 1020 Fed Cir
`
`1992
`
`have with...unanimity held that it does not avoid infringement to combine into
`
`one member that which the patent discloses as two if the single member performs the duties of
`
`both in the same way Royal Typewriter Co

`

`
`Cir 1948 Thus the Accused Oracle Application Server Products infringe even if the Web
`
`Server and dispatcher are combined into
`
`single component
`
`Third Oracles argument contradicts its own expert For example in Dr Shamoss
`
`invalidity analysis of two references based on Microsoft Internet
`
`Information Server Version 1.0
`
`115 1.0 Dr Shamos contends that the dispatcher is that component of the Database
`
`Connector which reads the WDG file Ex 14 Shamos Rpt Ex at 110 The Database
`
`Connector is Dynamically Linked Library .dll
`
`that runs in the same executable as the uS
`
`1.0 Web server 2d Finkel DecI 15 Thus Oracles new requirement
`
`for the dispatcher
`
`contradict Oracles own expert who opined that the dispatcher of IfS 1.0 is
`
`component of the
`
`Web server not
`
`separate executable process Of course once again Oracle only argues for
`
`this new requirement
`
`for the dispatcher in its noninfringement brief not in its invalidity brief
`
`For all these reasons the Accused Oracle Application Server Products include
`
`dispatcher

`
`The Accused Oracle Database Products Literally Infringe
`Claim Of The 554 Patent
`
`The Accused Oracle Database Products literally infringe claim of the 554 Patent under
`
`Id 16 Indeed Oracle only disputes that
`both parties constructions
`intercepted at the Web server OHS
`
`the Web server OHS is not released by
`
`request is not
`
`page
`
`server and
`
`the Accused Oracle Database Products do not dispatch request from
`
`dispatcher to
`
`page server Because both the Accused Oracle Application Server Products
`
`and the Accused Oracle Database Products rely on OHS as the Web server Oracles first
`
`two
`
`noninfringement arguments intercepting and releasing are identical
`
`to Oracles arguments for
`
`the Accused Oracle Application Server Products and fail
`
`for the same reasons All of Oracles
`
`noninfringement
`
`arguments for the Accused Oracle Database Products are fatally flawed

`
`The Accused Oracle Database Products Literally Meet
`The Intercepting Limitation
`
`As explained above
`
`request is intercepted at the Web server OHS when the
`
`determination is made that
`
`page server not the Web server will process
`
`request
`
`Id
`
`17 Two examples of intercepting
`
`request at OHS related to the Accused Oracle Database
`
`Products are
`
`when
`
`request is routed from OHS to OC4J and
`
`when
`
`request is routed
`
`from OHS to mod_plsql Id Oracles arguments must be rejected as already explained above
`
`with respect to the Accused Oracle Application Server Products
`
`The Accused Oracle Database Products Literally Meet
`The Releasing Limitation Under Both Parties
`Constructions
`
`As also explained above the Web server OHS is released to process other
`
`requests when it routes
`
`request to
`
`page server e.g RAC instance under both parties
`
`constructions in the same two ways First OHS is released by sending the request to the
`
`page server which allows OHS to be released to have additional
`
`resources to process other
`
`requests Second OHS is released when RAC instance sends Reliable Network Protocol
`
`Acknowledgement
`
`upon receipt of
`
`request
`
`Id 18 That acknowledgement also frees Web
`
`server resources used to process other requests Id Therefore the Accused Oracle
`
`Database Products meet the releasing limitation under both parties constructions
`
`The Accused Oracle Database Products Literally
`Request From Dispatcher To Page
`Dispatch
`Server
`
`With respect
`
`to the dispatcher Oracle only argues that the Accused Oracle Database
`
`Products
`
`do not include
`
`dispatcher that is
`
`separate executable process from the Web
`
`server OHS and
`
`do not perform dispatching because JDBC and OCI do not examine
`
`request for runtime load balancing Oracle Br 33-35 Both arguments fail

`
`summary judgment brief As already explained above these new requirements should be
`
`rejected
`
`Oracle emphasizes portions of Dr Finkels report in an effort to twist it
`
`into
`
`requirement
`
`that the processing of dynamic requests must be treated differently than other
`
`requests if
`
`intercepting is to make any sense at all Oracle Br 29 Fairly read however
`
`Dr Finkels report is absolutely consistent with epicRealms infringement argument
`
`the fact
`
`that the Web server will process some but not all requests proves intercepting under either
`
`partys construction
`
`-------
`
`In addition Oracle now contends that under either partys construction intercepting
`
`requires that
`
`request is diverted before the Web Cache executable can process the request
`
`Even if Oracle were correct that
`
`request has to be diverted before the Web server processes
`
`the request
`
`the Accused Oracle Web Cache Products still
`
`infringe The key to Oracles

`
`argument
`
`is that it presumes that doing

`
`The Accused Oracle Web Cache Products Literally
`Meet The Releasing Limitation
`
`Oracle also argues that the Accused Oracle Web Cache Products do not meet the
`
`releasing limitation because the Web sewer Web Cache is not released when it routes
`
`request to
`
`page sewer e.g Oracle Application Sewer Web Cache is released to process
`
`other requests under either partys construction of releasing 2d Finkel Dccl 25 When
`
`Web Cache routes
`
`request to page sewer it
`
`is released to process other requests under both
`
`parties constructions in the same two waysthe same two ways that the Web server of the
`
`Accused Oracle Application Sewer Products are released Id 26
`
`First Web Cache is released to process other requests e.g the other requests it currently
`
`is processing when it routes
`
`request to
`
`page sewer Under epicRealms construction Web
`
`Cache is freed when it routes
`
`request to
`
`page sewer because it can now use additional
`
`resources to process other requests Id Similarly Oracles construction is also met because

`the act separate from merely receiving the request to free the Web sewer to process other

`
`requests required by Oracles construction is the page server processing the request Id
`
`Because the page server is processing the request Web Cache is released and not required to
`
`also expend the resources necessary to process the request Thus as described above Web
`
