`Thus, although “the introduction of new evidence

`Law of Anticipation
`
`The jury instruction states: “Rather, for anticipation,
`it is sufficient if the single reference would have
`informed those skilled in the art that all of the
`claimed elements could have been arranged as in
`the claimed invention.” We agree with Abbott,
`therefore, that when read in its entirety, the
`instruction is incorrect because it makes sufficient,
`for purposes of anticipation, a prior art disclosure of
`individual claim elements that “could have been
`arranged” in a way that is not itself described or
`depicted in the anticipatory reference.

`
`
`
`Law of Anticipation
`
`The way in which the elements are arranged or
`combined in the claim must itself be disclosed, either
`expressly or inherently, in an anticipatory reference
`. . . . The requirement that the prior art elements
`themselves be “arranged as in the claim” means that
`claims cannot be “treated . . . as mere catalogs of
`separate parts, in disregard of the part-to-part
`relationships set forth in the claims and that give the
`claims their meaning.”

`
`Law of Anticipation
`
`Unless a reference discloses within the four
`corners of the document not only all of the
`limitations claimed but also all of the limitations
`arranged or combined in the same way as
`recited in the claim, it cannot be said to prove
`prior invention of the thing claimed and, thus,
`cannot anticipate under 35 U.S.C. § 102.

`The Petition Ignores Embodiments
`
`•
`
`Sling and its expert, Dr. Acton, fail to analyze or even
`discuss a reference’s embodiments in the Petition.
`• The word “embodiment” does not appear in the
`Petition’s claim analysis
`
`• Dr. Acton declined to answer questions about
`embodiments, including how many embodiments are
`disclosed or whether he analyzed that question

`The Petition Fails to Prove Anticipation
`
`• The Petition fails to show reference discloses “all of
`the limitations arranged or combined in the same way
`as recited in the claim . . . to prove prior invention of
`the thing claimed ” (NetMoney, Therasense)
`
`• Petition also fails to show that a POSITA, reading
`reference would “at once envisage” the claimed
`arrangement or combination.
`
`• The Petition fails to make a prima facie showing of
`anticipation and cannot cure this inreply.

`
`Dvir Does Not Anticipate “Data Block”
`
`Sling’s argument is a non-sequitur.:
`
`•
`
`Sling argues that other things, a “DVD movie,”
`“frame,” or “adjacent frames” could be a data block
`
`• But other things are meaningfully different from
`“groups of rasters” and might be considered a single
`unit in ways that groups of rasters cannot.
`
`• But “groups of rasters” is not itself a data block

`
`“determining a parameter or attribute of at least a
`portion of the data block”
`•
`Sling’s argument is inconsistent with argument for
`“data block”
`• Any identified “parameter or attribute” is not that
`of a single 8x8 block.
`
`Sling’s new theory that Dvir renders “data block”
`obvious is entirely absent from the Petition

`“Access Profile” Under Realtime’s Construction
`
`• Dvir does not disclose “access profiles” under
`Realtime’s construction, which requires selecting a
`compression algorithm based on balancing
`compression speed and efficiency
`
`• Dvir’s disclosures are about selecting algorithm based
`on “data type” under Sling’s construction

`
`Sling should not be rewarded for that strategic and

`• Vishwanath teaches that symmetrical algorithms are
`beneficial for compressing various data types,
`including video data.
`
`•
`
`Sling’s expert agreed that a symmetrical algorithm
`would be beneficial to use for video data.
