`
`II. Education and Work Experience
`
`6.
`
`I have attached to this declaration a copy of my curriculum vitae that
`
`fully sets forth my qualifications. Below is a summary of my education, work
`
`experience, and other qualifications.
`
`7.
`
`In 1985, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and
`
`Computer Science from The Johns Hopkins University. In 1987, I received an
`
`Master’s degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon
`
`University. In 1992, I received a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Carnegie
`
`Mellon University. My doctoral dissertation proposed a new approach for the
`
`architecture of a computer processor.
`
`8.
`
`I have more than 35 years of experience as a computer architect,
`
`computer system designer, personal computer graphics designer, educator, and
`
`executive in the electronics industry.
`
`9.
`
`In 1983, I began designing touch sensors, microprocessor-based
`
`computer systems, and I/O (input/output) cards for personal computers as a senior
`
`design engineer for Touch Technology, Inc. During the course of my design projects
`
`Page | 2
`
`Page 16 of 139
`
`
`
`
`with Touch Technology, I designed I/O cards for PC- compatible computer systems,
`
`IPR2024-00784 Dr. Wolfe Declaration
`U.S. Patent No. 10,073,960
`
`including the IBM PC-AT, to interface with interactive touch-based computer
`
`terminals that I designed for use in public information systems. I continued
`
`designing and developing related technology as a consultant to the Carroll Touch
`
`division of AMP, Inc., where in 1986 I designed one of the first custom touch-screen
`
`integrated circuits. I designed the touch/pen input system for the Linus WriteTop,
`
`which many believe to be the first commercial tablet computer.
`
`10.
`
` From 1986 through 1987, I designed and built a high- performance
`
`computer system as a student at Carnegie Mellon University. From 1986 through
`
`early 1988, I also developed the curriculum and supervised the teaching laboratory
`
`for processor design courses.
`
`11.
`
`In the latter part of 1989, I worked as a senior design engineer for ESL-
`
`TRW Advanced Technology Division. While at ESL-TRW, I designed and built a
`
`bus interface and memory controller for a workstation- based computer system, and
`
`also worked on the design of a multiprocessor system.
`
`12. At the end of 1989, I (along with some partners) reacquired the rights
`
`to the technology I had developed at Touch Technology and at AMP and founded
`
`The Graphics Technology Company. Over the next seven years, as an officer and a
`
`consultant for The Graphics Technology Company, I managed the company's
`

`
`Page 17 of 139
`
`
`
`
`engineering development activities and personally developed dozens of touch screen
`
`IPR2024-00784 Dr. Wolfe Declaration
`U.S. Patent No. 10,073,960
`
`sensors, controllers, and interactive touch- based computer systems.
`
`13.
`
`I have consulted, formally and informally, for a number of fabless
`
`semiconductor companies. In particular, I have served on the technical advisory
`
`boards for two processor design companies: BOPS, Inc., where I chaired the board;
`
`and Siroyan Ltd., where I served in a similar role for three networking chip
`
`companies—Intellon, Inc., Comsilica, Inc., and Entridia, Inc.—and one 3D game
`
`accelerator company, Ageia, Inc.
`
`14.
`
`I have also served as a technology advisor to Motorola and to several
`
`venture capital funds in the U.S. and Europe. Currently, I am a director of Turtle
`
`Beach Corporation, providing guidance in its development of premium audio
`
`peripheral devices for a variety of commercial electronic products.
`
`15. From 1991 through 1997, I served on the Faculty of Princeton
`
`University as an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering. At Princeton, I taught
`
`undergraduate and graduate-level courses in Computer Architecture, Advanced
`
`Computer Architecture, Display Technology, and Microprocessor Systems, and
`
`conducted sponsored research in the area of computer systems and related topics. I
`
`was also a principal investigator for DOD research in video technology and a
`
`principal investigator for the New Jersey Center for Multimedia Research. From
`
`1999 through 2002, while a Consulting Professor, I taught a Computer Architecture
`

`
`Page 18 of 139
`
`
`
`
`course to both undergraduate and graduate students at Stanford University. At
`
`IPR2024-00784 Dr. Wolfe Declaration
`U.S. Patent No. 10,073,960
`
`Princeton, I received several teaching awards, both from students and from the
`
`School of Engineering. I have also taught advanced microprocessor architecture to
`
`industry professionals in seminars sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and
`
`Electronics Engineers (“IEEE”) and the Association for Computing Machinery
`
`(“ACM”). I am currently a lecturer at Santa Clara University teaching courses on
`
`Microprocessor Systems, Integrated Circuit Design, Real-Time Computing, and
`
`Mechatronics and currently serve as Faculty Senate President.
`
`16. From 1997 through 2002, I held a variety of executive positions at a
`
`publicly-held fabless semiconductor company originally called S3, Inc. and later
`
`called SonicBlue Inc. I held the positions of Chief Technology Officer, Vice
`
`President of Systems Integration Products, Senior Vice President of Business
`
`Development, and Director of Technology, among others. At the time I joined S3,
`
`the company supplied graphics accelerators for more than 50% of the PCs sold in
`
`the United States. At S3 I supervised the design of several PC graphics accelerators.
`
`During my time at SonicBlue we launched more than 30 new consumer electronics
`
`products including devices to support copy-protected video and many of the first
`
`commercial products to support copy-protected internet audio content. These
`
`included some of the first consumer products to support playback of encrypted
`
`content using digital rights management (DRM) based security. I also worked with

`
`
`Universal Music Group and Sony Entertainment on the development of systems for
`
`IPR2024-00784 Dr. Wolfe Declaration
`U.S. Patent No. 10,073,960
`
`distribution and management of secure, encrypted content.
`
`17.
`
`I have published more than fifty peer-reviewed papers in computer
`
`architecture and computer systems and IC design. I also have chaired IEEE and
`
`ACM conferences in microarchitecture and integrated circuit design and served as
`
`an associate editor for IEEE and ACM journals. I served on the IEEE Computer
`
`Society Awards committee. I am an IEEE Fellow, an IEEE Computer Society
`
`Distinguished Contributor and a Member of ACM. I am a named inventor on at least
`
`fifty-seven U.S. patents and thirty-seven foreign patents, which are listed in my
`
`curriculum vitae. Some of these patents relate to encryption systems.
`
`18.
`
`In 2002, I was the invited keynote speaker at the ACM/IEEE
`
`International Symposium on Microarchitecture and at the International Conference
`
`on Multimedia. From 1990 through 2005, I have also been an invited speaker on
`
`various aspects of technology and the PC industry at numerous industry events
`
`including the Intel Developer's Forum, Microsoft Windows Hardware Engineering
`
`Conference, Microprocessor Forum, Embedded Systems Conference, Comdex, and
`
`Consumer Electronics Show, as well as at the Harvard B
