`
`
`
`relied upon to draw inferences about the awareness of and importance to users of the patented
`
`features relative to other features included in the survey. A summary of the survey results is
`
`shown in Exhibits 3-7.
`
`III.
`
`SURVEY
`A. Overview
`
`14.
`
`I designed and conducted a survey using well-established survey methodology
`
`principles to measure awareness and importance of the patented features among current Android
`
`smartphone and tablet users, relative to other features. For the importance measure, I used a
`
`rating-based question, often referred to as a Likert scale in the survey literature. Likert scale
`
`questions are an easy-to-understand, well-accepted standard survey method.6 They are “one of
`
`the most frequently used tools in the social sciences” “to measure not only attitudes, but
`
`opinions, personalities, and descriptions of people’s lives and environments as well.”7
`
`15.
`
`Suppose a researcher would like to ask consumers about the importance of a
`
`particular feature. One approach would be to ask, for example, “Is battery life of your
`
`smartphone important to you? [yes/no].” In this situation, the closed-ended yes or no question
`
`presents the respondent with a dichotomous choice that does not reflect the intensity of
`
`importance. An improvement to this question would be to present response categories that form
`
`an ordered rating scale, such as, “How important or unimportant is battery life in your experience
`
`using your Android smartphone? [1- Very unimportant, 2- Somewhat unimportant, 3- Neither
`
`
`
`6 Tourangeau, R., Rips, L. J., and Rasinski, K., The Psychology of Survey Response (2000), New York:
`Cambridge University Press, at pp. 230-254. Further, ratings are considered easier than rankings because the
`former “do not require choices among items [and] they take less time” than ranking questions. Converse, J. M.,
`and Presser, S., Survey Questions: Handcrafting the Standardized Questionnaire (1986), Issue 63 Sage
`Publications, at p. 28.

`
`
`
`important nor unimportant, 4- Somewhat important, 5- Very important, and 6- Don’t
`
`know/unsure].” In this example, the five response categories (plus “Don’t know/unsure”) are
`
`labeled and implicitly ordered from “very unimportant” to “very important.” Such labeled and
`
`ordered response categories are referred to as a rating scale or Likert scale and measure the level
`
`of importance by providing a comprehensive range of options with well-defined equal intervals.8
`
`16.
`
`Studies suggest that “reliability is higher when all points are labeled with words
`
`than when only some are,” and “[r]esearchers can maximize reliability and validity by selecting
`
`labels that divide up the continuum into approximately equal units.”9
`
`B. Survey Design
`1.
`Feature Selection
`
`17.
`
`I designed and executed an online survey to evaluate current awareness and
`
`importance of specific features available on Android smartphones and tablets. I surveyed
`
`respondents about seven smartphone and tablet features, including three features which I have
`
`been informed were enabled by the ’443 Patent, the ’317 Patent, and the ’440 Patent.10 To
`
`develop the survey instrument, I first consulted with the technical experts in this case to construct
`
`the following descriptions of the features enabled by the ’443, ’317, and ’440 Patents:11

`10 As will be discussed below, one of the “distractor” features was applicable only to smartphones and was only
`presented to respondents surveyed about smartphones. Further, all respondents were presented with an
`additional, non-existent feature that will be discussed below.

`
`
`
` Automatic power-saving mode: When you don’t use your [DEVICE]12
`
`for a period of time, your [DEVICE] will automatically enter “power-
`
`saving mode” which turns off certain functionalities in order to prolong
`
`the [DEVICE]’s battery life. For example, after a period of inactivity your
`
`[DEVICE]’s screen will dim and then turn off. Without this feature, you
`
`would have to manually turn off selected functionalities to save battery
`
`life.13
`
` Automatic GPS map orientation: When you use your [DEVICE]’s GPS
`
`application for walking navigation, your map orientation will adjust
`
`automatically when you turn or change direction so that the map will face
`
`in the same direction as you are at all times. Without this feature, the map
`
`would face in one direction, such as North, and you would have to
`
`manually rotate your device if you want the map to face the direction you
`
`are walking.14
`
` Thumbnail image storage: Your [DEVICE] stores pictures and video as
`
`thumbnails (smaller versions of the image) that can be recognized or
`
`searched without opening up the picture or video. Without this feature, in
`
`order to browse pictures and video, you would have to open up the
`
`
`
`12
`
`In the survey, “[DEVICE]” was replaced by “smartphone” or “tablet” depending upon which device the
`respondent was surveyed about.
`13 This feature is associated with the ’443 Patent (communications with Dr. Joshua Phinney).
`14 This feature is associated with the ’317 Patent (communications with Dr. Michael Caloyannides).

`
`
`
`pictures and videos one at a time.15
`
`18.
`
`In addition to these three patented features, I included other features in the survey,
`
`referred to as distraction features or controls. A well-designed survey should not indicate the
`
`purpose of the study to the respondents or suggest to respondents that they should provide a
`
`particular response “demanded” by the survey (referred to as demand effects or demand
`
`artifacts).16 To avoid drawing attention to the patented features and to ensure objectivity, I
`
`included distraction/control features that are potentially important to a user of an Android
`
`smartphone or tablet but are unrelated to the patented features. The inclusion of these features
`
`also enables an assessment of relative importance using the results of my survey.
`
`19.
`
`In selecting the distraction/control features that would be included in the survey, I
`
`sought to include features that would exist in most if not all Android smartphones and tablets. I
`
`included a range of features that I expected to be of varying importance to users of Android
`
`devices. The features chosen and descriptions used were based on my experience in the
`
`smartphone and tablet industry and on my research regarding features that are available on
`
`Android devices. My research of these features included, among other things, the review of
`
`publicly-available information, including user manuals for various Android smartphones and
`
`
`
`15 This feature is associated with the ’440 Patent (communications with Dr. Vijay Madisetti). My research
`confirmed that these features, or features similar to these, are available on the Android devices used by the
`majority of respondents who completed my survey. Respondents for which this was not the case, or if I could
`not verify one way or the other whether these features were available on their devices, were excluded from my
`analysis. See Exhibits 3 and 4. Note that I am not offering a legal or technical opinion about whether these
`devices infringe the ’443, ’317, or ’440 Patents or, in any way, use these patents. My opinion relates only to
`whether there is information in the public domain which suggests that the smartphones and tablets used by
`respondents in my survey offer functionalities that are the same or similar to those described in my survey.

`
`
`
`tablets.
`
`20.
`
`Below is the list of the distraction/control features and their associated
`
`descriptions that I included in my survey:
`
` Discrete silencing of an incoming call (presented to the smartphone
`
`group only): You can silence an incoming call’s ring without the caller
`
`knowing you’re doing so, and without sending the caller directly to
`
`voicemail. Without this feature, in order to silence the ring you would
`
`have to, for example, decline the call and send the caller directly to
`
`voicemail, or set your ringtone to silent prior to receiving any calls.
`
` World clock: You can add multiple clocks to show the time in other
`
`major cities and time zones around the world. Without this feature, in
`
`order to know the time in a time zone other than the one where you are
`
`located, you would have to search that information on the internet or
`
`perform a calculation.
`
` Cut, copy, paste: You can cut, copy, and paste words and images within
`
`or between most applications (such as webpages, emails, and text
`
`messages) on your [DEVICE]. Without this feature, you would need to
`
`retype the text you want to duplicate and you would not be able to
`
`duplicate other objects.17
`
`
`
`17 As with the features associated with the ’443, ’317, or ’440 Patents, my research confirmed that the
`distraction/control features that I included, or features similar to these, are available on the Android
`smartphones used by the majority of respondents who completed my survey and, with the exception of the
`“discrete silencing of an incoming call” feature, these features, or features similar to these, are available on the
`
`9
`
`

`

`Case 5:16-cv-00179-RWS Document 56-6 Filed 03/22/18 Page 11 of 18 PageID #: 954
`
`
`
`21.
`
`A well-designed survey should avoid response bias due to respondents’ tendency
`
`to admit socially desirable traits or qualities such as being knowledgeable of smartphone or tablet
`
`features (referred to as social desirability bias).18 To detect such bias, in one research study,
`
`researchers asked participants to rate their familiarity with a set of consumer products, which
`
`were, in fact, nonexistent. Participants who claimed that they were familiar with the nonexistent
`
`items were identified as having a tendency to admit a socially desirable trait.19 Similarly, in
`
`another study, researchers developed an “over-claiming” technique to index the social
`
`desirability bias.20 Participants were asked to rate their knowledge of various persons, events,
`
`products, and other items, among which 20% were nonexistent. Participants’ responses were
`
`analyzed to index both their social desirability bias and knowledge.21
`
`22.
`
`Therefore, to minimize the social desirability bias, I included in my survey a
`
`feature that did not exist on Android smartphones or tablets at the time of the survey (as
`
`confirmed by my review of publicly-available information and discussions with the technical
`
`experts). Respondents in my survey who indicated that they were aware of the nonexistent
`
`
`
`Android tablets used by the majority of respondents in my survey. Respondents for which this was not the
`case, or if I could not verify one way or the other whether these features were available on their devices, were
`excluded from my analysis. See Exhibits 3 and 4.

`
`
`
`feature were terminated from the survey. By identifying and eliminating respondents who show
`
`social desirability bias, the likelihood of such bias is reduced. Below is the nonexistent feature
`
`and description that I included in my survey:
`
` Device start-up countdown: Every time you turn on your [DEVICE] (for
`
`example, after a reboot), the start-up screen will show a countdown of how
`
`much time is left (in minutes and seconds) before your device is fully
`
`functional and ready to use. Without this feature, you would not know
`
`exactly how much time your device needs to start-up when you turn it on.
`
`23.
`
`I used a consistent approach to developing the feature definitions. For example,
`
`all definitions are in the second person (rather, than e.g., talking about a “user” more generally).
`
`All descriptions use underlining to emphasize key elements of the description. All descriptions
`
`discuss the alternative if the feature were not available (“without this feature…”). All
`
`descriptions avoided valenced language such as “good” or “bad” and used functional
`
`descriptions pertaining to actual use case scenarios.22 Further, as discussed in Section III.B.2.c, I
`
`tested respondents’ understanding of these feature descriptions in my pre-test and revised
`
`descriptions as necessary to minimize potential confusion and misunderstanding.

`
`First, the survey screened respondents to ensure the following:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`they were over 18 years of age;
`
`they and any of their family members were not employed by or working as
`
`a smartphone or tablet manufacturer or retailer or at a marketing, market
`
`research, or advertising agency;
`
`they passed the attention-check multiple-choice question;
`
`they purchased for themselves in the past 24 months, and used in the past
`
`seven days, an Android smartphone and/or tablet;23 and
`
`
`
`they did not participate in a survey about smartphones or tablets in the past
`
`three months.24
`
`26.
`
`Any respondent not meeting these criteria was terminated from the survey. Upon
`
`passing the screening criteria, respondents were assigned to either the smartphone group, if they
`
`owned and used an Android smartphone, or the tablet group, if they owned and used an Android
`
`tablet. Respondents who owned and used both an Android smartphone and an Android tablet
`
`were randomly assigned to either the smartphone group or the tablet group.25 Respondents were
`
`instructed that they would be asked questions about the device (smartphone or tablet, depending
`
`
`
`23 When respondents were asked about the operating system(s) of their smartphones and/or tablet, they were
`shown a variety of operating system options (e.g., “iOS/iPhone/Apple,” “Windows,” and “BlackBerry OS”) to
`mask the focus of the survey on Android devices. The response options for smartphones were based on
`http://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/united-states-of-america#monthly-201704-201704-map. The
`response options for tablets were based on http://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/tablet/united-states-of-
`america#monthly-201704-201704-map.
`24 Other screening criteria can be found in the survey script, attached at Appendix A. The screening criteria that I
`used are standard criteria used for market research and litigation.
`25 This semi-random assignment was set so that the smartphone group represented at least 50% and the tablet
`group represented at least 30% of the targeted sample of 1,500 survey completes.

`
`After these instructions, respondents were asked the following question regarding
`
`their use of the device in the past three months (where “[DEVICE]” stands for “smartphone” or
`
`“tablet” depending on the group that the respondent was assigned to):
`
`
`

`If a respondent had more than one such device, the respondent was instructed to respond about the one he or
`she used most recently. For example, if a respondent in the smartphone group had multiple Android
`smartphones fitting all the criteria, the respondent was required to respond about the smartphone he or she used
`most recently.
`27 For respondents who selected the “None of the above” option, all other previously selected options were
`automatically de-selected and such respondents proceeded to the last question of the survey which asked for
`the manufacturer, model, and version of their Android device.

`broader, functionalities associated with the six main features in the survey. The broader
`
`functionalities for each of the following five features included in the survey are identified below:

`
`
`Feature in Survey
`
`Broader Functionality
`
`Obtained directions using a GPS/navigation app
`Automatic GPS Map Orientation
`Browed or shared photos or videos
`Thumbnail Image Storage
`Discrete Silencing of an Incoming Call Received a phone call
`World Clock
`Checked the time

`At least one of the following: Received email or text
`messages, including in apps; Sent email or text
`messages, including in apps; Edited documents; and
`Browsed or shared photos or videos
`
`29.
`
`There were no broader functionalities included for the Automatic Power-Saving
`
`Mode feature or nonexistent feature, as these features are not associated with any particular
`
`activity. Other broader functionalities listed above (e.g., “received news alerts”), not associated
`
`with any of the patented or distractor/control features were included as distractors, to disguise the
`
`purpose of the study to the respondent and to avoid demand effects.28 In order to avoid demand
`
`effects related to the awareness and importance questions, if a respondent did not indicate usage
`
`of the broader functionality, where one existed, the respondent was not subsequently asked
`
`questions regarding the awareness or importance of the associated features (see Appendix A).
`
`For example, if a respondent did not select “Checked the time,” the respondent would
`
`subsequently not be asked any awareness or importance questions about the World Clock
`
`feature.29
`
`
`
`28 Distractor functions were informed by https://www.marketingcharts.com/industries/retail-and-e-commerce-
`41027/attachment/exacttarget-daily-activities-smartphones-tablets-feb2014.
`29 Additionally, if a respondent selected “None of the above” in response to the question about the usage of the
`broader functionalities, the respondent was not asked about any of the features.
