`
`DETAILED ACTION
`
`Continued Examination Under 37 CFR 1.114
`
`A request for continued examination under 37 CFR i .114, including the fee set
`
`forth n 37 CFR i .1 7(e), was filed in this application after final rejection. Since this
`
`application is eligible for continued examination under 37 CFR i .114, and the fee set
`
`forth n 37 CFR 1.17(e) has been timely paid, thefinalityofthe previous Office action
`
`has been withdrawn pursuant to 37 0FR i .1 14. Applicant's submission filed on
`
`08/05/2010 has been entered.
`
`Response to Arguments
`
`Applicant's arguments with respect to claims 2-6 have been considered but are
`
`moot in view of the new ground(s) of rejection.
`
`However, the Examiner further reviewed the Applicant's amendment and
`
`arguments which have been found not persuasive.
`
`In regards to the claims, the Applicant amended the claimed limitations to
`
`recite at least in part '. . .commanding and involuntarily forcing any other network
`
`participants. . " Therefore, argued that the prior art reference (Crowley) fails to teach the
`
`claimed limitations.

`Application/Control Number: 11/615472
`Art Unit: 2617
`
`Page 3
`
`In response the Examiner respectfully disagrees with Applicant's
`
`amendments and arguments. First, the Applicant did not point to at least a section or
`
`specific paragraphs and/or lines that clearly described the newly added and/or amended
`
`claimed limitations. However, after careful review of the Applicant's specification on file,
`
`the Examiner found nothing that mention and/or at least indicate "commanding and
`
`involuntarily forcing any other network participants" throughout the specification.
`
`Therefore, this newly added claimed limitation encompasses new matter which will be
`
`addressed in detail below.
`
`Finally, for the sake of examination, the amended limitation as present above is
`
`unclear with respect to the subject matter of this invention. However given the amended
`
`claimed limitation its' broadest reasonable interpretation, the claimed limitation is fairly
`
`characterized as "commanding and involuntarily forcing any other network
`
`participants" (sending command messages to another user or device, and in response
`
`receiving certain information about the device
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112
`
`The following is a quotation of the first paragraph of 35 U.S.C. i 12:
`
`The specification shall contain a written description of the invention, and of the manner and
`process of making and using it, in such full, clear, concise, and exact terms as to enable any person
`skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with which it is most nearly connected, to make and use the
`same and shall set forth the best mode contemplated by the inventor of carrying out his invention,
`
`Claims 2-6, are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 1 1 2, first paragraph, as failing to
`
`comply with the written description requirement. The claim(s) contains subject matter
`
`which was not described in the specification in such a way as to reasonably convey to

`
`one skilled in the relevant art that the inventor(s), at the time the application was filed,
`
`had possession of the claimed invention.
`
`In regards to claim 2, includes at least in part "commanding and involuntarily
`
`forcing any other network participants" which have not been clearly described
`
`and/or defined in the specification to be readily understood by one ofordinary skill in the
`
`art. Therefore, this newly added claimed limitation encompasses new matter which is
`
`not mentioned and/or clearly defined in the original specification on file.
`
`For the sake of examination, the amended limitation as present above is unclear
`
`with respect to the subject matter of this invention. However given the amended claimed
`
`limitation its' broadest reasonable interpretation, the claimed limitation is fairly
`
`characterized as "commanding and involuntarily forcing any other network
`
`participants" (parents keeping track of family member by sending command messages
`
`to another user or device, and in response receiving certain information about the user
`
`and/or device).
`
`In regards to claims 3-6, are rejected at least for similar reasons as discussed
`
`above.
`
`Claim Rejections - 35 USC S 103
`
`The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. I 03(a) which forms the basis for all
`
`obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action:
`
`(a) A patent may not be obtained though the invention is not identically disclosed or described
`as set forth in section 102 ofthis title, ifthe differences between the subject matter soughtto be
`patented and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been obvious at the
`time the invention was made to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which said subject matter
`pertains. Patentability shall not be negatived by the manner in which the invention was made.

`
`Claims 2-6, are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as being unpatentable over
`
`Crowley et al. (US Patent No. 7593740) in view of Zhovnirovsky et al. (US Publication
`
`No. 20060030339).
`
`As to claim 2, Crowley teaches a method of communicating among a group of
`
`participants each having a PDA or Smart cell phone (mobile devices 94 - figure 6, col.
`
`11 lines 41-67), an associated GPS (col. 8 lines 37-46) and Advanced Communications
`
`Software allowing all cell phone users to exchange data through a server (computer
`
`system 82 -figure 6, col. 12 lines 1-11) comprising the step ofestablishing a network of
`
`participants who exchange and display identity, location, status and, optionally, personal
`
`data (col. 4 line 65 - col. 5 line 1 7) and to receive data from all active network
`
`participants on the network (col. 7 lines I 2-43). However, Crowley fails to explicitly
`
`teach establishing a polling network of said participants and commanding and
`
`involuntarily forcing any other network participants whose phone numbers have been
`
`previously entered in a database on each phone or on the server to commence
`
`reporting on the network.
`
`But, Zhovnirovsky teaches establishing a polling network of said participants (pg.
`
`I , pp0006) and commanding and involuntarily forcing any other network participants
`
`(parent sends command tracking child's phone) whose phone numbers have been
`
`previously entered in a database on each phone or on the server to commence
`
`reporting on the network (reporting phone location name) (pg. 1 , ppOOlO, and ppO011).
`
`Thus it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at time invention was

`
`made to combine the teaching of Crowley with the teachings of Zhovnirovsky to achieve
`
`the goal of efficiently, reliably, and accurately keeping track of loved ones and acquiring
`
`desired information at any convenient time without asking and/or disturbing the user in a
`
`communication system.
`
`As to claim 3, Crowley teaches providing an all report network where each
`
`network participant starts reporting on the network upon activation and commences to
`
`receive data from all active network participants on the network (col. 5 lines 25-43,
`
`wherein Crowley discloses logging into the system). However, Crowley fails to teach
`
`and once activated, forcing network participants to display the data from all other
`
`network participants.
`
`But, Zhovnirovsky teaches and once activated, forcing network participants to
`
`display the data from all other network participants (pg. 1, pp0006, ppOOlO, and
`
`ppOOl I ). Thus it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at time
`
`invention was made to combine the teaching of Crowley with the teachings of
`
`Zhovnirovsky to achieve the goal of efficiently, reliably, and accurately keeping track of
`
`loved ones and acquiring desired information at any convenient time without asking
`
`and/or disturbing the user in a communication system.
`
`As to claim 4, Crowley teaches providing a common interest network where
`
`each network participant reports to all others who have identified themselves as having
`
`a common interest or are members of a particular type of organization (col. 7 line 12 -
`
`col. 8 line 3). However, Crowley fails to teach forcing all network participants to display
`
`the other network participants' data.

`

`
`But, Zhovnirovsky teaches forcing all network participants to display the other
`
`network participants' data (pg. 1 , pp0006, ppOOl O, and ppOOl i ). Thus it would have
`
`been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at time invention was made to combine
`
`the teaching of Crowley with the teachings of Zhovnirovsky to achieve the goal of
`
`efficiently, reliably, and accurately keeping track of loved ones and acquiring desired
`
`information at any convenient time without asking and/or disturbing the user in a
`
`communication system.
`
`As to claim 5, Crowley teaches providing a friends and family network such that
`
`each network participant only exchanges data with those friends and family members
`
`whose phone numbers or IP addresses have been previously entered in a database on
`
`each phone or on the server (col. 7 line 12 - col. 8 line 3). However, Crowley fails to
`
`teach and upon the participants sending its data to the server, forcing all others who
`
`have activated the ACS software to display the network participants' data.
`
`But, Zhovnirovsky teaches and upon the participants sending its data to the
`
`server, forcing all others who have activated the ACS software to display the network
`
`participants' data (pg. 1 , pp0006, ppOOl O, and ppOOl i ). Thus it would have been

`obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at time invention was made to combine the
`
`teaching of Crowley with the teachings of Zhovnirovsky to achieve the goal of efficiently,

`
`and data communications among a group of participants each desiring to establish a
`
`social contact with a heretofore unknown person for dating or other purposes that
`
`includes the use of a network of ACS software program enabled PDA or Smart cell

`
`network of the cell phones comprising the steps of: a. providing a network of
`
`participants each having a specific cell phone with the appropriate communication
`
`software for establishing dating contacts using the cell phone (col. 4 line 65 - col. 5 line
`
`17); al. providing a serverwith ACS software program establishing a network of said

`
`a menu for entering personal data of the cell phone user including personality
`
`information such as but not limited to: dating name (which need not be the person's real

`
`only those symbols that meet his or her dating criteria (col. 5 lines 25-43, wherein the
`
`user can select which other user to communicate with); h. placing totally anonymous
