`INTRODUCTION
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Asexplained by the petition and preliminarily agreed to by the Board,
`
`
`claims 1, 5, 13, 20, 21, 29, 30, 34, 42, and 49 (the “Challenged Claims’) are
`
`
`obvious under three grounds: (1) Haberman; (2) Haberman in view of Boger; and
`
`
`(3) Vanluijt. See Institution Decision, 18-19, 23. Nothing in the Patent Owner
` See
`
`Response (“POR") changes this determination. EX1012, P10.
`
`
`Patent Owner (PO)fails to address the substantive analysis of the petition or
`
`
`the institution decision in the Patent Owner Response (POR). Instead, for the first
`
`
`time, PO proposes narrow constructions for “privilege” and “destination identity,”
`
`
`which PO usesto justify their position of non-obviousness. Aslaid out below,
`
`
`these constructions are both unnecessary and incorrect. Nevertheless, even
`
`
`construing these terms in the mannerproposedby the PO, the Petitioner’s grounds
`
`
`still render the Challenged Claims obviousas discussed below. EX1012, P11.
`
`
`Finally, by failing to address the substantive analysis of the petition, PO
`
`
`concedesthat the Petitioner’s arguments of obviousnessare correct should the
`
`
`Board reject PO’s constructions. Accordingly, Petitioner maintainsthat the
`
`
`Challenged Claims are obvious underthree distinct grounds. See Petition, 7-64;
` See
`
`EX1012, p12.

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2022-00131 — Petitioner’s Reply
`
`
`“destination” is referenced in only two contexts in the ’267 specification: as an MS
`
`
`destination and as a destination identity field in a commandoperand. In the
`
`
`context of an MSdestination, the ’267 specification mentions that the MS
`
`
`destination is the MS for which the data was intended. In the context of a
`
`
`commandoperand, the destination identity is only used in the context of a
`
`
`parameterfield for a send command, a notify command, a compose command, a
`
`
`connect command, a find command, an invoke command, a copy command, a
`
`
`move command, a store command, and an administrate command. At no point
`
`
`does the ’267 specification discuss destination or destination identity in the context
`
`
`of a grantor/grantee relationship. EX1012, P22.
`
`
`Further, there is evidence in the record that PO’s use of “originating
`
`
`identity” and “destination identity” was a purposeful broadening of the claims.
`
`
`During prosecution, PO purposely removed the grantor/grantee relationships from
`
`
`the claims in favorof a broaderlimitation. EX1003, 87-96. In particular, PO
`
`
`submitted the following amendment:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2022-00131 — Petitioner’s Reply
`
`
`ls
`
`(Currently Amended) A method for automatic location based exchangeprocessing at a
`
`mobile data processing system, said method comprisingthe-steps-ef:
`
`

`

`

`

`
`
`
`EX1003, 88; EX1012, P23.
`
`
`Accordingly, it would be improper to import the grantor/grantee
`
`
`39
`embodiment into the claims because the claim language — the “destination identity
`
`
`— 1s broaderthan the grantor/grantee embodiment described in the specification.
`
`
`Therefore, PO’s construction of “destination identity” cannot be adopted. EX1012,
`
`
`PP 24-25.

`OF THE ’267 PATENT
`
`PO’s rebuttal is predicated on the Board adopting their constructions of
`
`
`“privilege” and “destination identity.”” POR, 19 and 24. While Petitioner submits
`
`
`that these constructions are both unnecessary and incorrect, even under PO’s

`
`
`content type A, the mobile device is not permitted to present content type B.
`
`
`EX1012, P30.
`
`
`Habermanalso providesthat the reverseis true, i.e., the preferences profile
`
`
`can indicate which types of content the mobile device is not permitted to present.
` not
`
`For example, Habermanteachesthat “the preferences profile indicates types of
`
`
`informational content with which the person using the mobile device does not
`
`
`desire to be presented.”” EX1004, [0035]. Similarly, the negative preferences must
`
`
`be followed and are not merely an indication that the user would prefer other types
`
`
`of content. In fact, Haberman equates such negative preferences to a blocked
`
`
`senderlist. EX2005, [0176]. Accordingly, continuing with the above example,if
`
`
`the user defines a preference that indicates that they do not wish to be presented
`
`
`with content type B, and only content type B, the mobile device cannotpresent
`
`
`content type B because the mobile device is not permitted to do so. EX1012, P31.
`
`
`Accordingly, Habermanclearly indicates that the preferences dictate
`
`
`whether the mobile device is permitted to present the user with certain contentor,
`
`
`taken another way, whether the sending device is permitted to have their content
`
`
`presented on the mobile device. EX1012, P32.
`
`
`Thus, for this reason alone, Haberman’s preferencesare privileges.
`
`
`EX1012, p33.

`
`
`EX1006, Abstract, [0001], [0036], FIG. 1. The arrangement in Vanluyt allows for
`
`
`organizations to provide users within a location to receive information relevant to
`
`
`those organizations. For example, “[t]here are many application scenarios where
`
`
`the typical information request will be highly dependent on the location andlikely
`
`
`to be identical or similar for many requesters at that location. For example, a
`
`
`restaurant may want to announceits daily menuto every passer-by.” EX1006,
`
`
`[0004], [0036]. “The arrangement 100 maybe used to provide location-specific
`
`
`information such as local maps, information on nearby shops and restaurants and
`
`
`so on, with the beacon 120, 121, 122 downloading information to the mobile
`
`
`device 130, preferably in the form of information keys.” Jd; EX1012, P46.
` Id
`
`The user of mobile device 130 can dictate the information processed or
`
`
`received from beacons 120, 121, 122 by allowingthe userto set preferences. For
`
`
`example, “[w]here the message is carrying data from one or other of the beacons
`
`
`120, 121, 122 the mobile device 130 preferably hasthe ability to filter the
`
`
`information received according to pre-stored user preferences.” EX1006, [0058];
`
