`I, Scott Bennett, hereby declare under penalty of perjury:
`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`1.
`
`I have personal knowledge of the facts and opinions set forth in this
`
`declaration, I believe them to be true, and if called upon to do so, I would testify
`
`competently to them. I have been warned that willful false statements and the like
`
`are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both.
`
`2.
`
`I am a retired academic librarian working as a Managing Partner of
`
`the firm Prior Art Documentation LLC at 711 South Race Street, Urbana, IL,
`
`61801-4132. Attached as Appendix A is a true and correct copy of my
`
`Curriculum Vitae describing my background and experience. Further information
`
`about my firm is available at www.priorartdocumentation.com.
`
`3.
`
`I have been retained by Klarquist Sparkman LLP. to authenticate and
`
`establish the dates of public accessibility of certain documents in an inter partes
`
`review proceedings for U.S. Patent Nos. 8,464,304 and 8,601,506. For this
`
`service, I am being paid my usual hourly fee of $88/hour. My compensation in no
`
`way depends on the substance of my testimony or the outcome of this proceeding.
`
`II. BACKGROUND AND QUALIFICATIONS
`
`4.
`
`•
`
`
`
`I was previously employed as follows:
`
`University Librarian, Yale University, New Haven, CT., 1994-2001;
`
`Page 3
`
`

`

`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`Director, The Milton S. Eisenhower Library, The Johns Hopkins
`
`University, Baltimore, MD, 1989-1994;
`
`Assistant University Librarian for Collection Management,
`
`Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, 1981-1989;
`
`Instructor, Assistant, and Associate Professor of Library
`
`Administration, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana,
`
`IL, 1974-1981; and
`
`Assistant Professor of English, University of Illinois at Urbana-
`
`Champaign, 1967-1974.
`
`5.
`
`Over the course of my work as a librarian, professor of English,
`
`researcher, and author of nearly fifty scholarly papers and other publications, I
`
`have had extensive experience with cataloging records and online library
`
`management systems built around Machine-Readable Cataloging (MARC)
`
`standards. I also have substantial experience in authenticating printed documents
`
`and establishing the date when they were accessible to researchers.
`
`6.
`
`In the course of more than fifty years of academic life, I have myself
`
`been an active researcher. I have collaborated with many individual researchers
`
`and, as a librarian, worked in the services of thousands of researchers at four
`
`prominent research universities. Members of my family are university
`
`researchers. Over the years, I have read some of the voluminous professional
`
`
`
`Page 4
`
`

`

`literature on the information seeking behaviors of academic researchers. And as
`
`an educator, I have a broad knowledge of the ways in which students in a variety
`
`of disciplines learn to master the bibliographic resources used in their disciplines.
`
`In all of these ways, I have a general knowledge of how researchers work.
`
`III. PRELIMINARIES
`
`7.
`
`Scope of this declaration. I am not a lawyer and I am not rendering
`
`an opinion on the legal question of whether any particular document is, or is not, a
`
`“printed publication” under the law.
`
`8.
`
`I am, however, rendering my expert opinion on the authenticity of the
`
`documents referenced herein and on when and how each of these documents was
`
`disseminated or otherwise made available to the extent that persons interested and
`
`ordinarily skilled in the subject matter or art, exercising reasonable diligence,
`
`could have located the documents before 25 January 2010.
`
`9. Materials considered. In forming the opinions expressed in this
`
`declaration, I have reviewed the documents and attachments referenced herein.
`
`These materials are records created in the ordinary course of business by
`
`publishers, libraries, indexing services, and others. From my years of experience,
`
`I am familiar with the process for creating many of these records, and I know
`
`these records are created by people with knowledge of the information in the
`
`record. Further, these records are created with the expectation that researchers
`
`
`
`Page 5
`
`

`

`and other members of the public will use them. All materials cited in this
`
`declaration and its attachments are of a type that experts in my field would
`
`reasonably rely upon and refer to in forming their opinions.
`
`10. Persons of ordinary skill in the art. I am informed that the subject
`
`matter of this proceeding relates generally to network architecture and
`
`multimedia systems, including creating and distributing multimedia.
`
`11.
`
`I have been informed by counsel that a “person of ordinary skill in
`
`the art at the time of the invention” is a hypothetical person who is presumed to be
`
`familiar with the relevant field and its literature at the time of the inventions. This
`
`hypothetical person is also a person of ordinary creativity, capable of
`
`understanding the scientific principles applicable to the pertinent field.
`
`12.
`
`I am informed that persons of ordinary skill in this subject matter or
`
`art would have possessed a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical
`
`and/or Computer Engineering, or equivalent training, and (ii) approximately two
`
`years of experience in network architecture and multimedia systems, including
`
`creating and distributing multimedia. Lack of work experience would have been
`
`remedied by additional education, and vice versa..
`
`13.
`
`It is my opinion that by at least the 1990s, such a person would have
`
`had access to a vast array of long-established print resources in
`
`electrical/computer engineering and computer science as well as to a rich and fast-
`
`
`
`Page 6
`
`

`

`changing set of online resources providing indexing information, abstracts, and
`
`full text services for electrical/computer engineering and computer science.
`
`14. Library catalog records. Some background on MARC formatted
`
`records, OCLC, WorldCat, and OCLC’s Connexion is needed to understand the
`
`library catalog records discussed in this declaration.
`
`15. Libraries world-wide use the MARC format for catalog records; this
`
`machine readable format was developed at the Library of Congress in the 1960s.
`
`16. MARC formatted records provide a variety of subject access points
`
`based on the content of the document being cataloged. All may be found in the
`
`MARC Fields 6XX. For example, MARC Field 600 identifies personal names
`
`used as subjects and the MARC Field 650 identifies topical terms. A researcher
`
`might discover material relevant to his or her topic by a search using the terms
`
`employed in the MARC Fields 6XX.
`
`17. The MARC Field 040, subfield a, identifies the library or other entity
`
`that created the original catalog record for a given document and transcribed it into
`
`machine readable form. The MARC Field 008 identifies the date when this first
`
`catalog record was entered on the file. This date persists in all subsequent uses of
`
`the first catalog record, although newly-created records for the same document,
`
`separate from the original record, will show a new date. It is not unusual to find
`
`multiple catalog records for the same document.
`
`
`
`Page 7
`
`

`

`18. WorldCat is the world’s largest public online catalog, maintained by
`
`the Online Computer Library Center, Inc., or OCLC, and built with the records
`
`created by the thousands of libraries that are members of OCLC. WorldCat
`
`provides a user-friendly interface for the public to use MARC records; it requires
`
`no knowledge of MARC tags and codes. WorldCat records appear in many
`
`different catalogs, including the Statewide Illinois Library Catalog. The date a
`
`given catalog record was created (corresponding to the MARC Field 008) appears
`
`in some detailed WorldCat records as the Date of Entry.
`
`19. Whereas WorldCat records are very widely available, the availability
`
`of MARC formatted records varies from library to library.
`
`20. When an OCLC participating institution acquires a document for
`
`which it finds no previously created record in OCLC, or when the institution
`
`chooses not to use an existing record, it creates a record for the document using
`
`OCLC’s Connexion, the bibliographic system used by catalogers to create MARC
`
`records. Connexion automatically supplies the date of record creation in the
`
`MARC Field 008.
`
`21. Once the MARC record is created by a cataloger at an OCLC
`
`participating member institution, it becomes available to other OCLC participating
`
`members in Connexion and also in WorldCat, where persons interested and
`
`
`
`Page 8
`
`

`

`ordinarily skilled in the subject matter or art, exercising reasonable diligence, can
`
`locate it.
`
`22. When a book has been cataloged, it will normally be made available
`
`to readers soon thereafter—normally within a few days or (at most) within a few
`
`weeks of cataloging.
`
`23.
`
`Internet Archive. The Internet Archive is a non-profit digital library
`
`founded in 1996.
`
`24. The Internet Archive maintains an archive of webpages collected from
`
`the Internet using software called a crawler. Crawlers automatically create a
`
`snapshot of webpages as they existed at a certain point in time. The WayBack
`
`Machine is an application created by the Internet Archive to search its archive of
`
`Web page URLs and to represent, graphically, the date of each crawler capture.
`
`25. The Internet Archive, now with about 50 petabytes of data, collects
`
`only Web material that is publicly available. Some sites are “not archived because
`
`they were password protected, blocked by robots.txt, or otherwise inaccessible to
`
`our automated systems. Site owners might have also requested that their sites be
`
`excluded from the WayBack Machine” (see the WayBack Machine FAQ,
`
`https://archive.org/about/faqs.php#The_Wayback_Machine).
`
`26. Many Internet Archive captures made by the WayBack Machine have
`
`a banner at the top with the capture date prominently displayed. Other dates when
`
`
`
`Page 9
`
`

`

`captures of the same URL have been made are indicated to the right and left of the
`
`date provided in the banner. Some captures may lack this banner. In these latter
`
`cases, the URL for the capture begins with the identification of the Internet
`
`Archive page (e.g., http://web.archive.org/web/) followed by information that dates
`
`and time stamps the capture as follows: year in yyyy, month in mm, day in dd, time
`
`code in hh:mm:ss (e.g., 20041208081749, or 8 December 2004 at 8:17:49 a.m.).
`
`These elements are then followed by the URL of the original capture site.
`
`27.
`
`Indexing. A researcher may discover material relevant to his or her
`
`topic in a variety of ways. One common means of discovery is to search for
`
`relevant information in an index of periodical and other publications. Having
`
`found relevant material, the researcher will then normally obtain it online, look for
`
`it in libraries, or purchase it from the publisher, a bookstore, a document delivery
`
`service, or other provider. Sometimes, the date of a document’s public
`
`accessibility will involve both indexing and library date information. Date
`
`information for indexing entries is, however, often unavailable. This is especially
`
`true for online indices.
`
`28.
`
`Indexing services use a wide variety of controlled vocabularies to
`
`provide subject access and other means of discovering the content of documents.
`
`The formats in which these access terms are presented vary from service to
`
`service.
`
`
`
`Page 10
`
`

`

`29. Online indexing services commonly provide bibliographic
`
`information, abstracts, and full-text copies of the indexed publications, along with
`
`a list of the documents cited in the indexed publication. These services also often
`
`provide lists of publications that cite a given document. A citation of a document
`
`is evidence that the document was publicly available and in use by researchers no
`
`later than the publication date of the citing document.
`
`30. Prominent indexing services include:
`
`31. SPIE Digital Library. Produced by the International Society for
`
`Optical Engineering (originally the Society of Photographic Instrumentation
`
`Engineers), this data base includes the newsletters, journals, and conference
`
`proceedings of the organization. More than 400,000 articles make up the database
`
`with 18,000 new research papers added each year.
`
`IV. OPINIONS REGARDING INDIVIDUAL DOCUMENTS
`
`DOCUMENT 1. Janne Lahti et al., “A Mobile Phone-based Context-
`aware Video Management Application,” in Proceedings of SPIE 6074,
`Multimedia on Mobile Devices II, San Jose, CA., 15-19 January 2006,
`SPIE-IS&T, Vol. 6074, pp. 60740O-1 – 60740O-11.
`
`1.
`
`Authentication
`
`32. Document 1 is a conference paper by Janne Lahti and others presented
`
`at a conference on multimedia on mobile devices sponsored by the Society for
`
`Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T) and the International Society for Optical
`
`Engineering (SPIE). The conference was held on 15-19 January 2006 in San Jose,
`
`
`
`Page 11
`
`

`

`CA. Conference proceedings, including Document 1, were published as the
`
`Proceedings of SPIE 6074, Multimedia on Mobile Devices II.
`
`33. Attachment 1a is a true and correct copy of Document 1 (along with
`
`the Multimedia on Mobile Devices II title page, title page verso, and contents
`
`pages) from the Linda Hall Library. Attachment 1b is a true and correct copy of
`
`the Linda Hall Library catalog record, in MARC format, for Multimedia on Mobile
`
`Devices II.
`
`34. Attachment 1a is in a condition that creates no suspicion about its
`
`authenticity. Specifically Document 1 (starting on p. 60740O-1 of Document 1
`
`copied Attachment 1a) is not missing any intermediate pages, the text on each page
`
`appears to flow seamlessly from one page to the next, and there are no visible
`
`alterations to the document. Attachment 1a was found within the custody of a
`
`library – a place where, if authentic, it would likely be found.
`
`35. Document 1 is also readily available online. Attachment 1c is a true
`
`and correct copy of the SPIE Digital Library index record for Document 1.
`
`Attachment 1d is a true and accurate copy of Document 1 downloaded from the
`
`item record copied in Attachment 1c.
`
`36. Based on finding copies of Document 1 both in a library and online,
`
`and on finding library catalog and online index records for Document 1, I conclude
`
`that Attachment 1a is an authentic copy of Document 1.
`
`
`
`Page 12
`
`

`

`2.
`
`Public Accessibility
`
`37. Attachment 1e is a true and correct copy of an Internet Archive
`
`capture, of 6 January 2006, of parts of the program for the 15-19 January 2006
`
`SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose, CA, available at
`
`http://web.archive.org/web/20060106073559/http:/electronicimaging.org/program
`
`/06/EI06_final.pdf .
`
`38. Document 1 entered the realm of public discourse on Tuesday 17
`
`January 2006 when it was presented (as indicated on p. 59 of the program copied
`
`in Attachment 1e) at January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose. The scope
`
`of the conference is suggested by list of conference sessions (starting on p. 10 of
`
`the program copied in Attachment 1e) and the list of over 2,500 attendees (starting
`
`on p. 268 of the program copied in Attachment 1e).
`
`39.
`
`I am informed by counsel that the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T
`
`conference in San Jose was a well know conference among the multimedia on
`
`mobile device community. Thus, it is my understanding that a person of ordinary
`
`skill interested in multimedia on mobile devices would have been independently
`
`aware of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose as a prominent
`
`forum for discussing such technologies.
`
`40. Attachment 1f is a true and correct copy of the Statewide Illinois
`
`Library Catalog record for the proceedings of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T
`
`
`
`Page 13
`
`

`

`conference in San Jose, showing this publication is held by 24 libraries world-
`
`wide.
`
`41. The verso of the title page for the proceedings of January 2006
`
`SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose (Attachment 1a) carries the information that “as
`
`of July 2006, papers in the Proceedings of SPIE are fist published electronically in
`
`the SPIE Digital Library (www.spiedl.org) and subsequently in print and CD-
`
`ROM.”
`
`42. Attachment 1c, the SPIE Digital Library index record for Document 1,
`
`indicates that the proceedings of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in San
`
`Jose was published on 10 February 2006.
`
`43. Attachment 1b, the Linda Hall Library catalog record for the
`
`proceedings of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose, indicates in
`
`the MARC Field 040 that this record was first created at the Linda Hall Library
`
`(OCLC code = LHL). The MARC Field 008 indicates this catalog record was
`
`created on 28 March 2006.
`
`44. Attachment 1g is a true and correct copy of an Internet Archive
`
`capture, dated 18 June 2006, of an IS&T and SPIE pre-publication notice of the
`
`availability of the proceedings of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in San
`
`Jose on CD-ROM. This announced publication includes SPIE Volumes 6055-
`
`6077, including Volume 6074 in which Document 1 was published.
`
`
`
`Page 14
`
`

`

`45.
`
`I conclude that the proceedings of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T
`
`conference in San Jose, including Document 1, was available online from its
`
`publisher on or about 10 February, shortly after the conference concluded. I
`
`conclude further that a print version of the January 2006 SPIE/IS&T conference in
`
`San Jose, including Document 1, was available in at least one library by mid-April
`
`2006, while the CD-ROM publication of the proceedings of the January 2006
`
`SPIE/IS&T conference in San Jose was publicly offered for sale by its publisher by
`
`no later than 18 June 2006..
`
`3.
`
`Conclusion
`
`46. Based on the evidence presented here—presentation at and
`
`publication in the proceedings of a prominent conference, library cataloging, and
`
`online indexing—it is my opinion that Document 1 was publicly accessible
`
`online on or about 10 February 2006, was publicly accessible in print form in
`
`at least one library by mid-April 2006, and was publicly offered for sale by its
`
`publisher in CD-ROM form by no later than 18 June 2006.
