`

`

`I, R. Benjamin Cassady, make the following declaration pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
`
`§ 1746.
`
`1.
`
`I am an attorney at the law firm Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow,
`
`Garrett & Dunner, LLP.
`
`2.
`
`I provide this Declaration in connection with the inter partes review
`
`of U.S. Patent No. 8,566,843. Unless otherwise stated, the facts stated in this
`
`Declaration are based on my personal knowledge.
`
`3.
`
`On
`
`January
`
`5,
`
`2017,
`
`I
`
`visited
`
`http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/1053011/ and saved an image of the webpage.
`
`That image is now Exhibit 1017 and refers to Reinhard Maier, “Event-Triggered
`
`Communication on Top of Time-Triggered Architecture,” Proceedings of the 21st
`
`Digital Avionics
`
`Systems Conference,
`
`vol.
`
`2,
`
`13.C.5-1-13.C.5-9
`
`(Oct. 27-31, 2002) (“Maier”). I also obtained a copy of Maier, which is now
`
`Exhibit 1006, on January 11, 2017, through the library at Finnegan, Henderson,
`
`Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP.
`
`4.
`
`On January 11, 2017, I visited http://electronicdesign.com/ saved an
`
`image of the webpage (Appendix A). I clicked on “Site Archive” and saved the
`
`next webpage (Appendix B). I then scrolled down to heading “2001” and clicked
`
`“January” and saved the next webpage. (Appendix C). I scrolled down and clicked
`
`on “Software And Hardware Standards Help, But In-Vehicle Network Growth Will
`
`1
`
`Page 2 of 31
`
`

`

`Be Conservative” and saved the next webpage (Appendix D). Appendix D is the
`
`webpage version of Ex. 1012 (William Wong, Software And Hardware Standards
`
`Help, But In-Vehicle Network Growth Will Be Conservative: CAN networks and
`
`OSEK/VDX compatible operating systems will drive tomorrow’s vehicles,
`
`Electronic
`
`Design,
`
`vol.
`
`49,
`
`issue
`
`1,
`
`62
`
`(Jan. 8, 2001)).
`
`5.
`
`I have reviewed Exhibit 1013 (Affidavit of Christopher Butler, Office
`
`Manager at the Internet Archive, dated December 13, 2016) and compared Exhibit
`
`A to Exhibits 1007-1010. I confirm that Exhibit 1008 is the same as pages 5-190
`
`of Exhibit A; Exhibit 1009 is the same as pages 191-330 of Exhibit A; Exhibit
`
`1007 is the same as pages 331-343 of Exhibit A; Exhibit 1010 is the same as pages
`
`382-422 of Exhibit A.
`
`6.
`
`I declare that all statements made herein of my knowledge are true,
`
`and that all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true, and
`
`that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false statements
`
`and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under
`
`Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.

`
`Vehicles will be home for some of the most diverse network and multiprocessing
`technology over the next five years. Standards will help improve acceptance and reduce
`costs, but the competitive nature of the industry limits the scope of hardware and
`software standards. Interchangeable computer­related components will probably remain
`manufacturer­specific for some time, with the exception of consumer­replaceable
`multimedia and communication components.
`
`Leading the standardization charge for networks in automotive environments is the
`Controller Area Network (CAN) with OSEK/VDX (German for Offene Systeme und deren
`Schnittstellen für die Elektronik im Kraftfahrzeug/Vehicle Distributed eXecutive)
`providing a standard for real­time operating systems for the many embedded processors
`found in automotive networks. Both actually are well established standards, but their use
`is only in the beginning stages. They can be found on today's luxury cars and trucks,
`where computer­controlled and networked services are common.
`
`CAN isn't the only kind of network found in automobiles. At the low end, the Local
`Interconnect Network (LIN) is being employed. A variety of multimedia networks are
`undergoing evaluation too, including a modified version of the IEEE­1394 standard to
`allow operation in a more hostile environment, the automobile.

`
`Software And Hardware Standards Help, But In­Vehicle Network Growth Will Be Conservative | Embedded content from Electronic Design
`
`In addition, software standards are becoming important in vehicle software development
`because of the need for high reliability and efficient development. OSEK/VDX isn't the
`only software initiative. Motor Industry Software Reliability Association (MISRA) C and
`Embedded C++ are standards designed to improve overall application development. C
`and C++ are languages of choice, with the assembler still filling in for low­end
`microcontroller development. Some of these standards target the automotive industry, but
`all are applicable to embedded application development.
`
`All vehicles will eventually be extensively networked, making them more complex than
`any home and most office networks. The number of embedded networked processors also
`will be very high in vehicles. Dozens of processors will handle everything from car locks to
`braking control.
`
`Automotive networks and software are undergoing customization for their target
`environment, yet the employment of this technology is for more than vehicle command
`and control. Today, CAN networks appear in various applications, from robotics to
`medical equipment. CAN's flexibility, low cost, and standardization make it an ideal
`alternative to more expensive networks, such as Ethernet.
`
`Europe leads in the incorporation of standards­based operating systems and network
`protocols in their luxury models with about a two­year lead over American and Japanese
`models. This is due more to the momentum of existing technology than technical
`expertise.
`
`Many American automobiles are networked using the 41.6­kbit/s J1850 standard.
`Unfortunately, J1850 has turned into three relatively unique implementations. J1850­
`based component use is consistent within each automobile vendor's product line, but not
`between vendors.
`
`The American migration to CAN and the inclusion of other network technologies like LIN
`is expected to proceed in an incremental fashion with CAN, and sometimes LIN,
`replacing J1850.
`
`Automotive Networks
`Even today, automobile networks are hierarchical in nature with multiple segments.
`Partitioning is done for a variety of reasons, from network segment bandwidth
`considerations to reliability and firewall considerations.
`
`Automotive systems can operate independently if network or gateways fail. This lets
`vehicles continue operation in a degraded capacity when failures occur.
`
`Redundant networks aren't presently employed, but this may change over the next 10
`years as X­by­wire comes into play. The term X­by­wire covers network control of critical
`systems, like steering and braking. Airplanes have employed X­by­wire for years, with
`redundant systems keeping planes flying at full capability even when some faults happen.
`This level of reliability is necessary before consumers will consider buying high­tech
`automobiles.
`
`How might networks be distributed throughout an automobile? A typical automobile in
`2005 should have half a dozen different kinds of networks and three times that many
`network segments (Fig. 1). This is a remarkable level of complexity, but it's one that will be
`designed for low cost and high reliability. In general, automotive networks can be
`grouped by purpose, such as control, X­by­wire, and multimedia.
`
`A Harbinger Of Things To Come
`The new Mercedes Benz C and S Class models offer a look at things to come. Mercedes
`Benz's in­vehicle CAN network supports features like Automatic Slip Control and
`Electronic Stability Program. These communicate with a number of different subsystems

`
`Mercedes Benz is moving toward X­by­wire technology with its throttle boost and brake
`assist. The throttle boost augments the acceleration when the gas pedal is depressed. On
`the other hand, the brake assist increases the braking pressure based on the acceleration
`of the brake pedal. A quick depression of the brake pedal, to avoid an accident for
`instance, causes a power boost to the brakes. So, the car stops more quickly.

`
`The J1850 standard with its various implementations is one of the most common
`automotive control networks in the U.S. It's shown in relationship to other networks like
`CAN and LIN in the table.
`
`CAN is a midrange protocol definition that can be utilized with many different physical
`layers. CAN and LIN products are available from companies such as NEC, Microchip,
`Motorola Semiconductor, Delphi Automotive, and Philips Semiconductors. Microchip's
`PIC18Cx58 CAN controller and PIC16C43x LIN controllers are examples of integrated
`transceivers and microcontrollers designed to lower costs.
`
`CAN, a Carrier­Sense­Multiple Access by Collision Detection using Arbitration
`(CSMA/CD­A) protocol, can operate at speeds up to 1 Mbit/s when the network is less
`than 30 meters long. By reducing the speed to 10 kbits/s, the maximum distance grows to
`5000 meters. Regardless, CAN has a multimaster architecture with prioritized messages
`of 8 bytes or less, plus a 15­bit cyclical redundancy check (CRC).
`
`Eventually, CAN will replace J1850, although a plethora of CAN­related specifications
`exist. For instance, the Society of Automotive Engineers' (SAE's) J2284 is a physical
`interface standard for high­speed CAN networks. SAE's 2411 is a single­wire CAN design
`presently implemented by General Motors. The tradeoffs with a single­wire approach are
`lower speed and a lower maximum segment length compared to a two­wire approach.
