`
`
`II. BACKGROUND AND QUALIFICATIONS
`3. My qualifications for forming the opinions in this report are
`
`summarized here and explained in more detail in my curriculum vitae (Exhibit
`
`1003), which also includes a list of my publications.
`
`4.
`
`I am the Chief Executive Officer of Experantis LLC, a technology
`
`consulting company. Previously, I was the Executive Vice President and Chief
`
`Technology Officer of SourceTrace Systems, Inc., a technology and services
`
`company enabling the delivery of secure remote electronic services over landline
`
`and wireless telecommunications networks.
`
`5.
`
`I received my bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and
`
`Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1995. I received
`
`my master’s degree in Computer Science from the Massachusetts Institute of
`
`Technology (MIT) in 1997, and my doctorate in Computer Science from MIT in
`
`2001. I received a certificate of completion for an executive education program on
`
`global leadership from Harvard University in 2011. My doctoral dissertation at
`
`MIT, entitled “Composable System Resources for Networked Systems,” which
`
`involved networked client architectures and systems, was selected as one of the top
`
`inventions in the history of MIT’s Laboratory for Computer Science. This

`
`
`
`invention is showcased in a time capsule at the Museum of Science in Boston,
`
`Massachusetts.
`
`6.
`
`In 2011, I was named a Young Global Leader. This honor, bestowed
`
`each year by the World Economic Forum, recognizes and acknowledges the top
`
`leaders—all below the age of 40—from around the world for their professional
`
`accomplishments, commitment to society, and potential to contribute to shaping
`
`the future of the world. In 2016, I was appointed to the World Economic Forum’s
`
`expert network as an expert in technology and innovation, and I advise world
`
`leaders on issues related to technology and innovation.
`
`7.
`
`From
`
`1997,
`
`I was
`
`the
`
`Entrepreneur-in-Residence
`
`at
`
`FidelityCAPITAL, the venture capital arm of Fidelity Investments. In 1999, I
`
`founded and served as President and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Satora
`
`Networks, which developed tools and technologies for building appliances and
`
`services for the Internet using wireless and other technologies to extend computing
`
`beyond the desktop.
`
`8.
`
`In 2001, I joined Bluestone Software’s Mobile Middleware Labs as a
`
`Senior Engineer developing applications and systems infrastructure for enterprise
`
`Java/J2EE, Web services, and enterprise mobile solutions. After the completion of
`
`Hewlett-Packard’s (“HP”) acquisition of Bluestone, I became a Senior Member of
`
`

`
`
`
`the Technical Staff at HP’s Middleware Division. I was responsible for
`
`architecting and developing the company’s next-generation Web services platform
`
`for enterprise as well as mobile environments, known as the Web Services
`
`Mediator. I also worked with HP’s worldwide software operations to add
`
`extensions into the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) application server to easily
`
`support mobile applications and content, as well as flexible integration with other
`
`software systems using the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) and web services
`
`technologies. Service oriented architectures and systems use web services
`
`technologies.
`
`9.
`
`I am the co-author, with James Webber, of the book Developing
`
`Enterprise Web Services: An Architect’s Guide, which is listed in my curriculum
`
`vitae. (Ex. 1003, 18). This book discusses Web services, which implement
`
`capabilities that are available to other applications over the Web via industry
`
`standard network and application interfaces and protocols. An application can use
`
`the capabilities of a web service by simply invoking it across a network without
`
`having to integrate it. As such, web services represent reusable software
`
`components that are URL addressable. This book has been adopted by over 100
`
`universities and colleges around the world, and has been translated or reprinted in a
`
`number of countries. I was also part of the Expert Group that developed the JSR-
`

`
`I have extensive experience in architecting, developing, optimizing,
`
`deploying and managing web-based computing systems,
`
`including web
`
`applications, web services and web sites, and I explained these concepts
`
`extensively in my above-identified book. I also have experience in many other
`
`computing technologies, including in the areas of programming and networking
`
`(e.g., using or designed for the Internet and Web, including with related
`
`technologies such as web browsers, applets, and virtual machines) to name a few,
`
`and have developed computer systems implementing these and numerous other
`
`technologies in the course of my academic and professional work.

`
`13. My opinions have also been guided by my appreciation of how a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art would have understood the challenged claims and
`
`the specification of the ’287 patent at the time of the alleged invention. I have
`
`been asked to initially consider the time of the alleged invention as the 2008 time
`
`frame, including and up to April 7, 2008, which I understand is the filing date of a
`
`

`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`
`provisional application to which the ’287 patent claims priority (Ex. 1001, Cover).
`
`My opinions reflect how one of ordinary skill in the art would have understood the
`
`’287 patent, the prior art to the patent, and the state of the art at the time of the
`
`alleged invention.
`
`14. As I discuss in detail below, it is my opinion that certain references
`
`disclose or suggest all the features recited in the challenged claims of the ’287
`
`patent.

`
`
`
`IV. PERSON OF ORDINARY SKILL IN THE ART
`15. Based on my knowledge and experience, I understand what a person
`
`of ordinary skill in the art would have known at the time of the alleged invention.
`
`My opinions herein are, where appropriate, based on my understandings as to a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art at that time. In my opinion, based on the
`
`materials and information I have reviewed, and based on my experience in the
`
`technical areas relevant to the ’287 patent, a person of ordinary skill in the art at
`
`the time of the alleged invention of the ’287 patent would have had at a bachelor’s
`
`degree in electrical engineering, computer science, or the equivalent thereof, and at
`
`least two years of experience with programming relating to websites. More
`
`education can substitute for practical experience and vice versa. I apply this
`
`understanding in my analysis herein.
`
`16. My analysis of the ’287 patent and my opinions in this declaration are
`
`from the perspective of one of ordinary skill in the art, as I have defined it above,
`
`during the relevant time frame stated above. During this time frame, I possessed at
`
`least the qualifications of a person of ordinary skill in the art, as defined above.

`
`
`
`V. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
`In this section, I discuss the state of the art with respect to certain
`17.
`
`technologies relevant to the subject matter of the ’287 patent. In particular, during
`
`the time preceding April 2008, a person of ordinary skill in the art would have
`
`been aware of various developments in the areas of computing, including regarding
`
`websites, web services, graphical user interface and portable code, as I discuss
`
`below.
`
`A. Websites
`18. A person of ordinary skill would have known in the relevant time
`
`frame about computer networks, including the Internet, which was known to be a
`
`distributed network formed from interconnected computer networks, including the
`
`World Wide Web (“Web” or “web”). A person of ordinary skill would have
`
`known that the Web includes websites provided by web servers, which are
`
`computers that store and retrieve computer files representing web pages that are
`
`requested by and displayed to users of the Internet. (Ex. 1029, 1:19-24.) It was
`
`known that web pages generally include text, images, animation, audio and other
`
`multimedia forms for presentation to viewers or users of the websites. (Id., 1:24-
`
`26.) It was further known that “[i]n the Web environment, client machines
`
`communicate with Web servers using Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which
`
`
`
`
`
`14
`
`
`
`Page 15 of 157
`
`

`

`Declaration of Sandeep Chatterjee, Ph.D.
`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`
`uses a standard page description language known as Hypertext Markup Language
`
`(HTML)” and that “HTML provides basic document formatting and allows the
`
`developer to specify ‘links’ to other servers and files.” (Id., 1:26-32.)
`
`19. A person of ordinary skill would have known that web browsers may,
`
`for example, reside on a client computer, and are used to display the web pages.
`
`(Ex. 1030, 1:48.) It was known in the relevant time frame that software programs,
`
`such as programs implemented in the Java programming language, “have found
`
`extensive use on the World Wide Web,” as “[t]hese programs include full-featured
`
`interactive, standalone applications, as well as smaller programs, known as applets,
`
`that run in a Java-enabled Web browser.” (Ex. 1031, 9:1-6.)

`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`B. Web Services
`20. As I discussed above in Section V.A, in the relevant time frame a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art would have been familiar with the Web and
`
`websites. (See above at Section V.A.) A person of ordinary skill would also have
`
`known that the Web was commonly used for providing various services remotely.
`
`Indeed, a person of ordinary skill would have known that web services represent a
`
`new architectural paradigm for implementing software. Such a skilled person
`
`would have known of web services since at least as early as the late 1990s. (Ex.
`
`1027, xvii.)2 Web services implement capabilities that are available to other
`
`applications (or even other web services) via network/application interfaces and
`
`protocols, extending the capabilities of a computing system beyond those of a
`
`single computer. (Id., 1-14.) A person of ordinary skill would have known that a
`
`computer program can use the capabilities of a web service by simply invoking it
`
`across a network without having to implement such capabilities with locally
`
`situated computing resources. As such, a person of ordinary skill would have
`
`known that web services represent reusable software building blocks that are

`
`
`
`addressable by a uniform resource locator (URL), as I explained in my book that I
`
`mentioned above in Section II. (Id., 2; see also above at Section II.) In other
`
`words, a person of ordinary skill would have known that knowing a service’s
`
`address made it possible to access and use the web service via a Web connection.
`
`21. A person of ordinary skill would have known that web services
`
`expose their capabilities to client applications, not their implementations. This
`
`allows web services to be implemented in any programming language and on any
`
`computing platform and still be compatible with all client applications. A web
`
`service typically describes its own capabilities, publishes its own programmatic
`
`interface and implements its own functionality that is available as a hosted service.
`
`(Ex. 1027, 4.) A client software program invokes the functionality of a web
`
`service by sending it messages as input, and receiving return messages as output
`
`from the web service so that the results can be used with the client software
`
`program. In other words, a person of ordinary skill would have known that a web
`
`service receives input from a client software program (that invokes the web
`
`service), process the input in some manner, and provides output, e.g., as shown in
`
`Figure 1-2 of my book:

`
`22. A person of ordinary skill would have known that a key enabler for
`
`Web services is XML, which stands for “eXtensible Markup Language.” (Id., 15;
`
`see also id., 16-70 (discussion of XML in my book).) Although HTML and XML
`
`are similar in that both are human-readable markup languages, HTML is for
`
`presentation markup while XML is for semantic markup. This attribute of XML
`
`supports expressing application and functional semantics
`
`in a platform-
`
`independent manner that enables any-to-any information exchange. (Id., 10; see
`
`also id. 15-70.) A person of ordinary skill would have known that other core
`
`technologies of web services are Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), Web

`
`
`
`Services Description Language (WSDL), and UDDI (Universal Description,
`
`Discovery and Integration). (See id., 71-143.) These were well-known
`
`technologies that a person of ordinary skill would have known about and known
`
`how to implement in various computing contexts for implementing web services.
`
`C. Graphical User Interface
`It was well known in the relevant time frame that a computer program
`23.
`
`typically includes a user interface to enable a user of the program to interface with
`
`the program, e.g., by providing input to the program or receiving output from the
`
`program. Indeed, it would have been expected for a program to include a user
`
`interface if the program is to be used by a user. A person of ordinary skill would
`
`have known of many types of user interfaces for displaying information to a user,
`
`including graphical user interfaces that show information visually to the user.
`
`Mandyam, which “relates to applications and user interfaces for mobile computing
`
`devices, and particularly to methods and systems for creating, publishing, sharing,
`
`and delivering mobile software applications,” discloses some examples of a user
`
`graphical user interface. (Ex. 1028, 1:14-17.)
`
`24. For example, Mandyam discloses:
`
`FIG. 37 shows various embodiments of web user
`interface displays that a user may be presented with to
`create a mobile widget. In some embodiments, an end-
`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`user is not required to do any programming that generates
`the mobile widget. As such, anyone capable of using a
`web browser and filling web forms can use such a user
`interface to publish a mobile widget. As an example, a
`topical expert, a blogger, a website owner or a content
`publisher can use this user interface to publish a mobile
`widget. Though not mentioned, the same user interface
`may also be presented via mobile web browser so that
`mobile users may also create and publish new mobile
`widgets and share them with others.
`(Ex. 1028, 52:20-31; see also id., FIGS. 37A-37F (reproduced below).)
`
`
`
`(Id., FIGS. 37A-37B.)
`
`25. Mandyam describes Figure 37A as follows:
`
`As in FIG. 37(a), the widget publisher may be asked to
`enter a few keywords on the topic on which he wants to
`create a widget. Text may be presented to the user,
`20
`
`

`
`
`

`
`

`

`Declaration of Sandeep Chatterjee, Ph.D.
`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`
`
`such as “Use this wizard to publish your own mobile
`widget. At this time, you may create a mash-up widget
`which aggregates content around a topic from several
`content sources. Star by entering a few keywords. … The
`user may enter the information in a text box 3705 and
`submit it by selecting the ‘Start’ key 3710 or an
`equivalent. The query may be transmitted back to a
`central server and parsed. A next control 3750 can be
`provided to enter the inputted data and proceed to the
`screen of FIG. 27(c).
`(Id., 52:41-55.)
`
`(Id., FIGS. 37C-37D.) Mandyam’s description of Figure 37D includes:
`
`The display in FIG. 37(d) allows the widget publisher to
`pick information sources 3735 to aggregate into his
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`widget. The user can select one or more sources to add
`to the widget. Several information source choices 3735
`may be presented to the publisher. … An information
`source may be the result of running the query on any of
`these search engines. The publisher can select this by
`selecting the checkbox next to any of these provided
`choices. The sources may also include data repositories,
`news sites, and so forth.
`(Id., 52:64-53:9; see also id., FIGS. 37E-37F (below).)
`
`(Id., FIGS. 37E-37F.)
`26. Thus, various
`
`types of graphical user
`
`interface controls and
`
`components were known, including text boxes, check boxes, buttons, and many
`
`others. A person of ordinary skill would have been skilled at programming and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`22
`

`

`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`
`configuring software systems and would have known how to implement user
`
`interface controls to achieve successful and operable software systems.
`
`D. Code Portability
`27. A person of ordinary skill would have known in the relevant time
`
`frame that one way to develop software code was to develop code specific to a
`
`given computing device on which the code is to be executed, and another way is to
`
`develop code that is portable across various types of computing devices without
`
`having to rewrite the code for each intended device. For example, Gilboa
`
`demonstrates that it was well known to develop device-specific code which
`
`contains instructions for a computing device and takes into account the runtime
`
`environment of the device:
`
`As part of 306, one or more runtime tools may generate
`one or more runtime environment platform-specific
`representations based upon the abstract representation
`generated in 304. For example, a runtime representation
`may be created for a particular device or for a particular
`runtime programming
`language environment. For
`example, for a target device supporting a runtime
`Java environment, a XGL-to-Java compiler may be
`used to generate Java code based upon the abstract
`representation. The generated Java code may then be
`
`
`
`

`

`

`
`
`Declaration of Sandeep Chatterjee, Ph.D.
`U.S. Patent No. 9,471,287
`
`
`executed by the Java runtime to display a GUI on the
`target device. For a device supporting a runtime Flash
`environment, a XGL-to-Flash compiler may be used
`to generate Flash code based upon
`the abstract
`representation. The generated Flash code may then be
`executed by the Flash runtime to display a GUI on the
`device. … Various
`other
`runtime
`target
`representations and for other runtime platforms may
`also be generated. Customized runtime tools may be
`developed
`to
`facilitate
`generation
`of
`runtime
`representations and GUIs for different GUI platforms. In
`some embodiments, the same device may support
`different runtime environment platforms and different
`runtime representations and GUIs may be generated for
`the different platforms for the same device. One or more
`runtime tools (e.g., compilers, interpreters, source coded
`generators, etc.) may be used in the runtime environment.
`
`(Ex. 1016, ¶[0054]; see also id., ¶[0043] (“Flash runtime 122 may execute Flash
`
`code 120 to generate/display a GUI 124 on a target device comprising a Flash
`
`platform.”); Ex. 1011, ¶[0033] (“Computing device 110 … generates device-
`
`specific application 180[, which] is communicated to a respective mobile device
`
`200 for subsequent execution on the device.”).)

`
`28. Tyburski explains that “[t]he proliferation of mobile consumer
`
`
`
`electronic devices” has “created a need for specialized computing skills to produce
`
`device specific applications” and that “[t]he variety in device architectures,
`
`functions, and data transfer methods coupled with limited application storage
`
`capacity has created an ever-increasing number of device specific applications
`
`across many different mobile-device types.” (Ex. 1011, ¶[0019]; see also id.,
`
`¶[0008] (“[T]oday’s more powerful computing platforms do not address problems
`
`for developing mobile-device application software caused by the widely varying
`
`operating systems, application interfaces, user input interfaces, data display types
`
`and sizes, memory sizes, etc. across many different mobile-device types.”).)
`
`29. Tyburski describes one known way (among many) for implementing
`
`portable code, which can be used to streamline software development so that code
`
`does not have to be rewritten for each computing device on which execution is
`
`desired. Tyburski discloses with reference to Figure 1 (below) that instruction set
`
`155 (shown above in Figure 1) “is [an] abstraction of an application program that
`
`is intended to be executed on a designated mobile device 200,” and “[a] software
`
`developer…enters the individual instructions that comprise the instruction set
`
`155.” (Id
