Shortly after my return, Virgil Bourassa came to my office to discuss a project he was working on for a CAD visualization tool that was used internally at Boeing.

Virgil knew that as soon as we would deliver a system that allowed for three-person collaboration, there would eventually be a request to keep increasing the number of participants, so we needed to figure out how to solve this beyond a three-person capability.

Therefore, Virgil and I realized that there was a need to create an effective means to allow scalable and reliable sharing of information across multiple processes.

Exhibit 2048 is a print-out of a C++ header file that shows that by April 22, 1997, we had implemented the code necessary to maintain regular graphs based on local information.

In other words, since the system was completely distributed among the participants, any of them could join, depart, or fail at any time and in any order, without causing any interruptions to the connections.

Boeing used in order to In November 1996, Robert Abarbanel, the head of Research, asked me to start developing a communications library for .

Because I had written a reliable UDP multicast communications library suitable for local-area networks for another project unrelated to Robert Abarbanel, my supervisor and the head of

SWAN was fully built as of August 30, 1999, and successfully implemented in by September 16, 1999, as indicated on our Invention Disclosure Form, attached as Ex. 2028.

In other words, since the system was completely distributed among the participants, any of them could join, depart, or fail at any time and in any order, without causing any interruptions to the connections.

To summarize, the process that resulted in the creation of the SWAN Patents took Fred Holt and I almost three years, although I estimated to Robert that I should be able to have something working in about three weeks.

The parties shall then commence a business diligence phase ending no later than March 31, 2011, to ascertain the commercial desirability of the PS3 SKU, taking into consideration the then prevailing information regarding expected market conditions and console transitions.

Stations in a token-ring network are physically connected, typically in a star-wired ring topology, to a wiring concentrator such as the IBM® 8228 Multistation Access Unit.

Each station is connected to the concentrator typically by shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling.

When a station transmits its data packet, the token-ring switch reads the packet's destination address information and forwards the data directly to the receiving station.

The switch then establishes a dedicated connection between the two stations, enabling data to be transmitted and received at the same time.

Full-duplex token ring increases sending and receiving bandwidth for connected stations, improving network performance.

1 Bungie, Inc., who filed a Petition in IPR2016-00935, has been joined as a petitioner in this proceeding.

Acceleration Bay is informed and believes that Destiny provides a hybrid system where each area within the game called “destination” has its own dedicated servers while all the players that are in that “destination” are connected to a peer- to-peer network and capable of communicating and interacting with each other.

As a way of example and not a limitation, Destiny provides a multiplayer mode, such as “The Crucible,” where multiple participants can simultaneously interact and communicate with each other utilizing the network technology claimed in the Acceleration Bay Patents.

As a way of example and not a limitation, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare provides a multiplayer mode, such as “Domination,” where multiple participants can concurrently interact and communicate with each other while also having an option to leave the game without affecting other players in the match by utilizing the network technology as claimed in the Acceleration Bay Patents.

Defendant’s Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare products infringe the ‘966 Patent through, at minimum, its multiplayer technology, which allows individual players to interact and communicate with each other by sending data through neighbor participants.

Defendant’s Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare products infringe the ‘497 Patent through, at minimum, its multiplayer technology, which allows individual players to join, communicate and interact with each other by utilizing a portal computer.
