`
`INTRODUCTION
`Patent Owner’s Response (Paper 11, “POR”) fails to rebut Petitioner’s
`
`showing that the instituted claims are obvious in light of Kasso, Raduchel and
`
`Olsen.
`
`In its POR, Patent Owner reiterates its challenge to Petitioner’s reasoning
`
`regarding the limitation “receiving at the server a login request from a user at the
`
`client,” found in claim 1. Patent Owner does not raise, and thus has waived, any
`
`other challenge as to claim construction, other limitations of claim 1, or any of
`
`the dependent claims.
`
`The POR does not rely on any new evidence. The POR relies on Dr.
`
`DiEuliis’ Expert Declaration (Ex. 2001) filed with the Patent Owner’s
`
`Preliminary Response (Paper 6, “POPR”) and previously considered by the
`
`Board. Patent Owner did not submit a new expert declaration with its POR, and
`
`did not cross-examine Petitioner’s expert witness.
`
`Patent Owner’s challenge, in broadly the same form, was previously
`
`considered and rejected by the Board. Contrary to Patent Owner’s conclusory
`
`contentions, the Petition (Paper 1) provided evidence and reasoning to support a
`
`finding of obviousness for the challenged claims, and the Board should find
`
`claims 1, 2 and 7-9 of the ‘466 patent invalid for obviousness.
`
`1
`
`

`

`
`
`II. PETITION PROVIDED EVIDENCE AND REASONING TO
`SUPPORT A FINDING OF OBVIOUSNESS FOR THE INSTITUTED
`CLAIMS
`A. Kasso renders obvious a system including a server that receives
`
`login requests and installs application programs
`
`The Petition sets forth two arguments regarding the obviousness of claim
`
`1, and in particular of a system using a single server that implements “receiving
`
`login requests” and “installing application programs.” See Petition at 32-36,
`
`discussing “single-server authentication” and “forwarding login requests to an
`
`authentication server.” Each of these arguments was supported by three reasons,
`
`each separately sufficient to support a finding of obviousness. Thus, the
`
`challenged claims are unpatentable if at least one of the two arguments is
`
`supported by at least one sufficient reason.
`
`Patent Owner argues that the two arguments set forth by the Petition fail
`
`because (1) there is no “reasoning or support for the overall architecture of its
`
`proposed modification,” and (2) “there is insufficient reasoning and support for
`
`a POSITA to make the alleged modification.” POR at 7. Petitioner disagrees,
`
`for the reasons set forth in the Petition and below.
`
`1. Legal background
`When considering obviousness of a combination of known elements, the
`
`operative question is “whether the improvement is more than the predictable use
`
`2
`
`

`

`
`
`of prior art elements according to their established functions.” KSR Int'1 Co. v.
`
`Teleflex, Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 418 (U.S. 2007). A person of ordinary skill in the
`
`art is also a person of ordinary creativity, not an automaton. Id. at 421. A
`
`proper obviousness analysis takes into account “the inferences and creative steps
`
`that a person of ordinary skill in the art would employ.” Id. at 418. The test for
`
`obviousness is not whether the features of a secondary reference may be bodily
`
`incorporated into the structure of the primary reference. […] Rather, the test is
`
`what the combined teachings of those references would have suggested to those
`
`of ordinary skill in the art. In re Keller, 642 F.2d 413, 425, (CCPA 1981). See
`
`also In re Mouttet, 686 F.3d 1322, 1332 (Fed. Cir. 2012), and In re Etter, 756
`
`F.2d 852, 859 (Fed. Cir. 1985).
`
`2. Petition explains and supports the obviousness of a system
`performing single-server authentication and application
`program installation
`In the first paragraph of section III.A.1.a of the POR, Patent Owner argues
`
`that the Petition does not explain “why a POSITA would have been motivated to
`
`completely redesign the Kasso system, such that the authentication functionality
`
`dedicated to a server designed for that purposes is, instead, implemented in an
`
`entirely different server having an expressly different purpose.” POR at 8.
`
`First, the Kasso system would not have been completely redesigned. A single-
`
`server approach would have merely involved “incorporating authentication
`
`3
`
`

`

`
`
`functionality on a delivery server such as the HTTP server 208 of Kasso.”
`
`Petition at 33. Second, a POSITA would have had at least three reasons to make
`
`the proposed modification, as explained in the Petition: Kasso expressly
`
`suggested that functionality described in his disclosure as implemented by
`
`multiple systems may be implemented on a single computer system; the
`
`proposed modification would have led to advantages in cost and simplification;
`
`and the proposed modification would have involved the simple substitution of
`
`one known element for another. Petition at 33-34.
`
`In the second paragraph of III.A.1.a, Patent Owner states, without citation,
`
`that “The Petition even admits that it provides no explanation, reasoning, or
`
`support for its proposed modification”. POR at 8. Contrary to the POR’s
`
`unsupported assertion, the Petition contains no such admission. A single-server
`
`implementation does
`
`involve a change
`
`in
`
`the entities
`
`involved
`
`in
`
`intercommunication relative to the embodiment described by Kasso with
`
`reference to Fig. 2. By noting this simple fact, Petitioner made no admission
`
`regarding a purported lack of explanation, reasoning or support for the proposed
`
`modification.
`
`In the third paragraph of III.A.1.a, Patent Owner argues that relying on the
`
`challenged ‘466 patent as a guide in an obviousness argument to modify
`
`references is impermissible. Id. at 9. The statement in the Petition that the ‘466
`
`4
`
`

`

`
`
`patent itself “envisions multiple entities…on a single machine, and does not
`
`deem further explanation of such an approach to be necessary” supports treating
`
`a single-server implementation as a simple, non-inventive modification. The
`
`‘466 patent citation is used in the context of explaining the simplicity of a
`
`single-server implementation, and not as a substitute for the asserted reasons
`
`why the claimed subject matter would have been obvious. The POR further
`
`asserts that “the Petition and Mr. Day cannot even envision or articulate the
`
`proposed modification.” To the extent an “envisioning” requirement is legally
`
`definable or relevant, Patent Owner’s claim is contradicted by the extensive
`
`explanation provided by the Petition for the proposed modification. Petition at
`
`34-36. The POR itself indicates that Patent Owner understood the nature of the
`
`modification described by the Petition.
`
`3. Kasso suggests implementing on a single computer system
`functionality described in another embodiment as
`implemented by computer systems
`Section III.A.1.b of the POR argues that Kasso does not suggest a “single-
`
`server” structure. Petitioner does not dispute that Kasso’s disclosures of Figs. 1
`
`and 2 refer to different embodiments. See Ex. 1009 (Kasso), 4:46 (“An alternate
`
`hardware environment is shown in Fig. 2.”). This fact is compatible with
`
`Kasso’s statement at 4:36-38 that “Execution of the sequences of instructions
`
`contained in memory 104 causes processor 102 to perform the process steps that
`5
`
`

`

`
`
`will be described hereafter.” Kasso also suggests, at 4:50-51, the possibility of
`
`configuring each network computer in the embodiment of Fig. 2 in the form of
`
`computer system 100, except without data storage device 107. This alternative
`
`suggestion, however, does not negate Kasso’s explicit suggestion in the prior
`
`paragraph, with reference to the first embodiment, that a single computer system
`
`(computer system 100) may be used to implement functionality described
`
`“hereafter” in the specification. Petitioner notes that the Petition made an
`
`obviousness argument under 35 USC §103, rather than an anticipation argument
`
`under 35 USC §102. Had Kasso expressly described the exact configuration of
`
`the claims, Petitioner would have argued anticipation rather than obviousness.
`
`In the second paragraph of III.A.1.b, Patent Owner argues that Kasso
`
`“distinguishes between its client computer systems and its multiple server
`
`systems.” Patent Owner’s argument is not responsive to the explicit suggestion
`
`by Kasso identified in the Petition.
`
`In the third paragraph of III.A.1.b, Patent Owner again makes a non-
`
`responsive argument. Specifically, Patent Owner argues that “nothing in
`
`Figures 1 or 2, alone or together provides explanation, reasoning, or support for
`
`a POSITA to modify Kasso such that…” The Petition cited Kasso 4:36-38,
`
`rather than the diagrams of Fig. 1 and 2 in isolation. And again, the Petition
`
`6
`
`

`

`
`
`made an obviousness argument under 35 USC §103, rather than an anticipation
`
`argument under 35 USC §102.
`
`4. Petition explains and supports advantages of a single-server
`implementation
`In the first paragraph of III.A.1.c, Patent Owner states that “The Petition
`makes the conclusory argument, without explanation, reasoning, or support, that
`“implementing two functions ... on the same server” would have “saved costs
`and potentially simplified the system architecture”. Petitioner notes that a prima
`facie showing of obviousness requires an articulated reason to support a
`proposed modification as viewed from the perspective of a POSITA, rather than
`a rabbit hole of reasons for reasons from the perspective of an automaton. A
`POSITA would have understood that hardware had a cost, and that using one
`computer instead of two would have saved costs and potentially simplified a
`system. This simple explanation was supported by Petitioner’s expert, Mr. Day.
`
`Patent Owner’s citations to Alza Corp. v. Mylan Labs., Inc., 464 F.3d
`
`1286, 1290 (Fed. Cir. 2006) and K/S HIMPP v. Hear-Wear Techs., LLC, 751
`
`F.3d 1362, 1365-66 (Fed. Cir. 2014) are inapposite. In Alza, the Federal Circuit
`
`upheld a holding of invalidity of the relevant claims as obvious, and rejected
`
`arguments that there would have been no reasonable expectation of success for
`
`7
`
`

`

`
`
`the proposed modification.1 The court noted that a reason to combine need not
`
`be found in the prior art, citing Cross Med. Prods., Inc. v. Medtronic Sofamor
`
`Danek, Inc., 424 F.3d, 1293, 1322 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (“[T]he motivation to
`
`combine need not be found in prior art references, but equally can be found in
`
`the knowledge generally available to one of ordinary skill in the art ....”). In K/S
`
`HIMPP, the Federal Circuit declined to support using common sense to supply
`
`structural features missing from the asserted prior art, specifically “a plurality of
`
`prongs that provide a detachable mechanical and electrical connection.” In the
`
`present case, there is no dispute that Kasso describes a server.
`
`In the second paragraph of III.A.1.c, Patent Owner argues that “nothing in
`
`the Petition or Mr. Day’s mere conclusory assertion provides explanation,
`
`reasoning, or support for a POSITA to modify Kasso such that the functionality
`
`of one specifically-designed server (the NIS server 230) is implemented, instead,
`
`within a distinct server designed for an entirely different purpose (the HTTP
`
`server 208), as Petitioner proposes.” POR at 12. Patent Owner ignores the
`
`Petition and Mr. Day’s Declaration, which explain, inter alia, that “A single-
`
`machine implementation would have been particularly desirable on a system of
`
`
`1 The claims at issue in Alza, unlike the instant claims, were directed to subject
`
`matter in the unpredictable arts.
`
`8
`
`

`

`
`
`limited scale, which would not have required the additional processing power of
`
`a dedicated authentication server.” Petition at 34.
`
`5. Petition explains why a single-server approach involves a
`simple substitution
`In the first paragraph of III.A.1.d, Patent Owner argues that Petitioner’s
`
`simple remark that a single-server implementation involves a change in the
`
`entities involved in intercommunication somehow undermines Petitioner’s
`
`arguments. Patent Owner apparently finds a contradiction between a “change in
`
`entities” and a “simple substitution.” There is no contradiction: a simple
`
`substitution does imply a change. Had there been no change from Kasso’s
`
`described embodiment(s), Petitioner’s argument would have been one under
`
`section 102 rather than section 103.
`
`Patent Owner takes issue with the word “potentially” in the Petition’s
`
`statement that a single-server implementation “would have saved costs and
`
`potentially simplified the system architecture.” POR at 13. The fact that a
`
`single-server approach would have potentially simplified a system’s architecture
`
`is used in the Petition as an instantly-recognizable reason that a POSITA would
`
`have used to modify Kasso’s teachings. Patent Owner’s argument is somewhat
`
`cryptic and hard to discern. Petitioner simply notes that a showing of
`
`obviousness involves combining or modifying the teachings of one or more
`
`references. See e.g. In re Etter, 756 F.2d 852, 859 (Fed. Cir. 1985).
`9
`
`

`

`
`
`6. Kasso does not teach away from a single-server approach
`In Section III.A.1.e Petitioner argues that Kasso teaches away from a
`
`single-server approach, repeating verbatim the arguments made in the POPR at
`
`20-21. In the Institution Decision, the Board stated that “At this juncture, we
`
`disagree with Patent Owner that Kasso’s description of separate, dedicated
`
`servers teaches away from a single server.” Institution Decision, Paper 7, at 21.
`
`With no new arguments and no new evidence, the Board should find no reason
`
`to depart from the Institution Decision.
`
`Patent Owner’s reliance on In re Gurley, 27 F.3d 551, 553 (Fed. Cir.
`
`1994) is misplaced. Simply describing a different implementation does not
`
`constitute teaching away. Moreover, in In re Gurley, the court rejected the
`
`patent owner’s teaching-away argument in a fact pattern that involved explicit
`
`disparagement of an alternative, rather than the mere description of a different
`
`embodiment as in the present case.
`
`7. Authentication Offload
`The arguments presented in section III.A.2 of the POR to challenge the
`
`“offload” modification are reproduced verbatim from the POPR, except for the
`
`first and the last paragraphs of the section. Compare POR, section III.A.2 (POR
`
`at 16-19) with POPR, section IV.B.3 (POPR at 22-25). The Board declined to
`
`10
`
`

`

`
`
`address the “offload” structure in its Institution Decision (Institution Decision at
`
`21).
`
`In the first paragraph of III.A.2, Patent Owner cites again Alza Corp. v.
`
`Mylan Labs., Inc., 464 F.3d 1286, 1290 (Fed. Cir. 2006) and K/S HIMPP v.
`
`Hear-Wear Techs., LLC, 751 F.3d 1362, 1365-66 (Fed. Cir. 2014), addressed
`
`above.
`
`In the second paragraph of III.A.2, Patent Owner argues that the offload
`
`modification would “significantly deviate” from Kasso’s disclosure and that the
`
`offload modification uses the ‘466 challenged patent as “a blueprint to
`
`fundamentally rewrite the disclosure in Kasso.” POR at 17. It is axiomatic that
`
`an obviousness argument deviates in some way from a reference, and adverbs
`
`such as “significantly” and “fundamentally” do not add substance to Patent
`
`Owner’s argument. Had there been no deviation from Kasso’s described
`
`embodiment(s), Petitioner’s argument would have been one under section 102
`
`rather than section 103. Patent Owner’s case law citations are inapposite. In re
`
`Sang Su Lee is a pre-KSR (2002) Federal Circuit obviousness decision that
`
`required a teaching/suggestion/motivation in the reference itself. K/S Himpp,
`
`the second case cited, is addressed above.
`
`In the third paragraph of III.A.2, Patent Owner argues that Kasso teaches
`
`away from the proposed modification, citing again In re Gurley. Patent Owner
`
`11
`
`

`

`
`
`states that the modification is “contrary to the express disclosure in Kasso.”
`
`Patent Owner also relies on its Expert Declaration to point to a potential
`
`bottleneck concern, and to undesirable server-to-server communications that
`
`would result from the proposed modification. As noted in section 6 above,
`
`simply describing a different implementation does not constitute teaching away.
`
`See In re Gurley and In re Mouttet, supra, and In re Fulton, 391 F.3d 1195,
`
`1201 (Fed. Cir. 2004).
`
`In fact, a potential bottleneck concern identified by Patent Owner’s expert
`
`for a distributed system provides a reason supporting a single-server approach,
`
`as described above. So does a concern with additional server-to-server
`
`communications and associated bandwidth and processing power.
`
`In the fourth paragraph of section III.A.2, Patent Owner argues that the
`
`NIS server 230 of provides what Kasso considers to be an adequate solution to
`
`security. This argument does not rebut the explanation by Petitioner’s expert
`
`that an offload approach would have enhanced security by minimizing the
`
`number of servers directly exposed to external communications. See Ex. 1008,
`
`Day Declaration, at ¶ 33. Patent Owner also stated that “In the case of In re
`
`Omeprazole Patent Litigation, 536 F.3d 1361 (Fed. Cir. 2008), the Federal
`
`Circuit affirmed a finding of nonobviousness because the alleged flaws in the
`
`prior art that ostensibly prompted the modification had not been recognized in
`
`12
`
`

`

`
`
`the art itself.” POR at 18. Patent Owner’s argument is undermined by its own
`
`expert declaration, which describes security as a known concern. See POR at
`
`15, discussing Ex. 2001, the Dr. DiEuliis Declaration.2
`
`In the fifth paragraph of Section III.A.2, Patent Owner does not rebut the
`
`argument that an offload approach would have involved a selection from a finite
`
`number of identified solutions with a reasonable expectation of success, a legal
`
`standard set by KSR. POR at 18-19. Patent Owner argues that Petitioner failed
`
`to explain the modification. But the Petition identified two specific solutions,
`
`direct v. indirect communication with a server, an identification that explains the
`
`proposed modification. Patent Owner further argues that Kasso does not leave it
`
`to POSITA to decide between two alternatives. In KSR itself there was no
`
`allegation that the primary prior art reference made an explicit suggestion, or
`
`“left it to POSITA to decide between two alternatives.” There simply were a
`
`finite number of locations where a pedal sensor could be affixed, and the court
`
`held that mounting an available sensor on a fixed pivot point was well within the
`
`grasp of a POSITA.
`
`2 While Patent Owner’s statement cited above uses the present tense, Patent
`
`Owner’s Declaration used the past tense and referenced a POSITA in its
`
`discussion of security. See Ex. 2001, Dr. Di Euliis Declaration, ¶ 17 and 89-
`
`92.
`
`13
`
`

`

`
`
`III. PATENT OWNER WAIVED THE RIGHT TO CONTEST THE
`CONSTITUTIONALITY OF IPR PROCEEDINGS
`Patent Owner advances a constitutional challenge to IPR proceedings as
`
`set forth in Oil States Energy Servs., LLC v. Greene’s Energy Grp., LLC, 137 S.
`
`Ct. 2239 (2017). POR at 20. Patent Owner’s argument is new. Patent Owner
`
`could have raised this challenge prior to the Institution Decision, in its POPR,
`
`and did not do so. Indeed, the Oil States petition for a writ of certiorari was
`
`filed in November 2016, well before the filing of the Petition. By not timely
`
`raising the constitutional challenge, Patent Owner waived the right to do so later.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`The subject matter differences at issue are simple and non-inventive, and
`
`are such that the claimed subject matter does not constitute more than the
`
`predictable use of prior art elements according to their established functions.
`
`Petitioner respectfully requests that all the instituted claims be declared
`
`unpatentable.
