`
`7.
`
`Samsung has a long history of groundbreaking innovation across a wide range of
`
`technologies. During the 1970s and 1980s, Samsung’s core technology businesses diversified
`
`and expanded globally. For example, Samsung began production of personal computers in 1983
`
`and selected telecommunications and semiconductors as core business lines in 1988. About
`
`Samsung.1 During this period, Samsung additionally challenged itself to restructure old
`
`businesses and enter new ones with the aim of becoming one of the world’s top five electronics
`
`companies.
`
`8.
`
`Samsung’s commitment to innovation is demonstrated in part by the billions of
`
`dollars in research and development expenditures incurred over the years. From 2005 through
`
`2010 alone, Samsung invested more than $35 billion in research and development. More than a
`
`quarter of all Samsung employees—over 55,100 engineers overall—are engaged in cutting-edge
`
`research and development projects.
`
`9.
`
`Samsung’s commitment to innovation and investment in research and
`
`development is demonstrated by the fact that SEC has in its portfolio over 40,000 United States
`
`utility patents and over 4,000 design patents. Samsung is consistently ranked ahead of other
`
`technology companies in terms of the number of issued patents obtained in the United States,
`
`with over 4,000 U.S. utility patents issued each year in recent years.
`
`10.
`
`Samsung is the assignee and owner of the patents at issue in this action, which
`
`relate to semiconductor technologies and computing devices: U.S. Patent No. 5,860,158 (the
`
`“’158 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 6,262,938 (the “’938 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 6,287,902 (the
`
`“’902 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 6,819,602 (the “’602 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 8,252,675 (the
`
`“’675 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 6,804,724 (the “’724 Patent”), U.S. Patent No. 7,073,054 (the

`
`“’054 Patent”), and U.S. Patent No. 5,777,854 (the “’854 Patent”) (collectively the “Asserted
`
`Patents”).
`
`11.
`
`Samsung has expended significant resources and efforts to become a pioneer in
`
`the area of mobile devices including smartphones, tablets, and computers. Samsung’s research
`
`and development successes have propelled the company to its status as one of the world’s
`
`leading electronics companies.
`
`12.
`
`As the Android operating system has grown, Samsung has grown with it to
`
`become the leading supplier of Android-based devices, including both Android-based
`
`smartphones and Android-based tablet computers.
`
`13.
`
`Samsung has also continuously innovated in the design and manufacturing of
`
`semiconductor products. Samsung established its first semiconductor fabrication facility in 1984
`
`and began solidifying its position as a leading company in semiconductor technology.
`
`Samsung’s semiconductor research and development has led numerous industry innovations.
`
`Just one year after its initial semiconductor facility was established, Samsung established the
`
`industry’s first 6 inch fabrication facility in 1985. In 1992, Samsung developed the world’s first
`
`64Mb DRAM. In 1998, Samsung began shipping the world’s first 128 Mb flash memory, and in
`
`2006 Samsung launched the world’s first 32GB solid state disk drive.
`
`14.
`
`Because of Samsung’s commitment to semiconductor research and development,
`
`Samsung is now recognized as one of the world’s leading semiconductor manufacturers.
`
`Samsung’s semiconductor foundry labs include state-of-the-art facilities that support volume
`
`production of chips using 90 nm, 65 nm, 45/40 nm, and 32/28 nm processes.

`
`15.
`
`Samsung’s deep experience and comprehensive knowledge of high-volume
`
`manufacturing technology has led to numerous innovations in the design and manufacturing of
`
`graphics technologies and computing devices.
`
`16. Without the ability to enforce its intellectual property rights, such as those relating
`
`to the semiconductor technologies and computing devices at issue in this action, Samsung would
`
`not be able to sustain the extensive commitment to research and development that has enabled it
`
`to lead the way into numerous improvements across a broad range of technologies.
`
`NVIDIA
`
`17.
`
`NVIDIA designs, develops, manufactures, imports, and sells GPUs, SOCs, and
`
`graphics cards for a wide range of products including mobile devices and desktop systems.
`
`NVIDIA creates and uses reference graphics card designs for incorporating NVIDIA GPUs and
`
`SOCs into graphics cards, in addition to designing, manufacturing, using and selling graphics
`
`cards.
`
`18.
`
`NVIDIA additionally manufactures, or contracts others to manufacture, mobile
`
`processors for smartphones and tablets. NVIDIA sells tablet computers under the name
`
`“SHIELD Tablet.” NVIDIA’s tablet computers use the Android operating system and compete
`
`directly with Samsung tablet computers that also incorporate the Android operating system.
`
`19.
`
`NVIDIA sells and offers to sell products and services throughout the United
`
`States, including in this Judicial District, through its website and through major electronics
`
`retailers in North America. NVIDIA introduces products and services that infringe the Asserted
`
`Patents knowing that they would be sold in this Judicial District and elsewhere in the United
`
`States.

`
`day training programs “designed for programmers working in the defense industry, who are
`
`looking to develop skills in application design and optimization to fully leverage the parallel
`
`computing capabilities of compute GPUs using the CUDA platform.” Id. For example,
`
`NVIDIA sponsored and delivered a free two-day CUDA Defense Workshop on its GPU products
`
`on May 23-24, 2013 at 13600 Eds Dr., Herndon, VA 20171. Id.
