`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`The '854 patent is directed to a method, system, and computer readable
`
`medium for name and address handling from a computer program. For example, a
`
`user can type a name and address in a document being created with a word
`
`processing program. Through the use of a button, the document is searched and
`
`the name and address are detected. The detected information is then used with
`
`respect to a second application program, such as a database. For example, the user
`
`can add the name and address to an address book as a new entry, or edit or add
`
`additional address information associated with the name if the name is already in
`
`the address book. If the user types only a name into the document and the database
`
`has the name and a corresponding address, the user can insert the address for the
`
`name into the document being created by the word processing program.
`
`The claims of the '854 patent may be divided into two groups:
`
`(1) claims
`
`directed to performing an operation, such as updating a database with an address;
`
`and (2) claims directed to inserting information into the document, such as an
`
`address. This Petition addresses the first set of claims (i.e., claims 19-35, 57-85,
`
`96, and 99). A related petition, filed concurrently, addresses the second set of

`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 9 of 65 PageID #: 24539
`
`claims (i.e., claims 1-18, 36-56, 86-95, 97, 98, 100, and 101). Two other petitions,
`
`also filed concurrently, address related US. Patent Nos. 7,917,843 and 8,306,993.
`
`Petitioners present herein references (including several originating from
`
`Apple) that anticipate or render obvious the challenged claims of this Petition. The
`
`references make clear that the purported invention of the challenged claims was
`
`well known before the '854 patent. Section III of this Petition summarizes the '854
`
`patent and relevant aspects of its prosecution history. Sections V-IX set forth the
`
`detailed grounds for
`
`invalidity of the challenged claims.
`
`This showing is
`
`accompanied by the Declaration of Dr. Daniel A. Menasce (“Menasce Decl.,” EX.
`
`1002.) Accordingly, Petitioners respectfully request a Decision to institute inter
`
`partes review.

`
`SUMMARY OF THE '854 PATENT
`
`A.
`
`Background Of The '854 Patent
`
`The '854 patent is directed to name and address handling within a document
`
`created by a computer program, such as a word processing program.
`
`(1:19-27.)
`
`One aspect relates to inserting information from a database into a document. This
`
`is described in connection with the left side of the flow charts of Figs. 1 and 2 and
`
`Examples 1, 5 and 7. Another aspect relates to adding data from a document into a
`
`database. This is described in connection with the right side of Figs. 1 and 2 and
`
`FOX_0009895
`
`

`

`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 10 of 65 PageID #: 24540
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 10 of 65 PageID #: 24540
`
`Examples 2-4 and 6. Dr. Menasce’s Declaration (Ex. 1002) includes highlighted
`
`copies of Fig. 1 corresponding to various examples.
`
`Example 2 relates to adding a new contact to a database. Fig. 5 (below)
`
`illustrates a document into which a name and address 46 have been entered.
`
`(6: 10-
`
`13.) The user presses a “OneButton” button 42.
`
`(6: 13-17; Fig. l at 2.) A program
`
`then analyzes what the user has typed into the document to detect certain types of
`
`information.
`
`(4:25-39; Fig. l at 4.) There is no disclosure as to how this analysis
`
`is accomplished.

`
`Upon detection, the name and address are searched in a database. (6:13-17; Fig. l
`
`at 14.) If the name and address in the document are not found, the user is
`
`prompted to, for example, enter the name and address into a database as shown in
`
`Fig. 6 and set forth in exemplary claims 22 and 24. (6:17-23.) The user can also
`
`edit the name and address, e.g., as discussed in connection with Fig. 7 and
`
`exemplary claim 23. (6:28-35.)

`
`B.
`
`Prosecution History Of The '854 Patent
`
`Throughout the prosecution of the '854 patent, Applicant argued that the
`
`distinguishable feature over the applied art was marking information or identifying
`
`information,
`
`such as
`
`a name and address
`
`in a document, “without user
`
`’5
`
`intervention.
`
`For example, in an Amendment dated January 24, 2008, at 31 (Ex.
`
`1003), Applicant asserted:
`
`Thus, Pandit teaches a system where the user must select text prior to
`
`the system processing the “a selected text”, e.g. col. 5,
`
`line 56).
`
`Neither the AddressMate program nor Pandit teach the element of
`
`“marking without user intervention” or “identifyng without user
`
`intervention or designation the first information” either alone or in
`
`combination.
`
`As
`
`set
`
`forth below,
`
`such marking or
`
`identifying information without user
`
`intervention was well-known in the art.
`
`IV. CLAIM CONSTRUCTION
`
`Petitioners provide constructions of several
`
`terms and the means-plus-
`
`function limitations. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.104(b)(3). Petitioners note that a claim is
`
`given the “broadest reasonable construction in light of the specification” in inter
`
`partes review.
`
`See 37 C.F.R. §42.100(b). Furthermore, a number of claims
`
`contain means-plus-function limitations under 35 U.S.C. § 112, HI 6 (pre-AIA).

`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 12 of 65 PageID #: 24542
`
`A.
`
`“Marking
`
`The First Information To Alert The User”
`
`The recitation “marking
`
`the first information to alert the user” appears in
`
`numerous independent claims.
`
`(See Claims 19, 25, 31.) However, neither the term
`
`“marking” nor the full recitation appears in the specification. The '854 patent is a
`
`continuation of application No. 09/189,626 filed on November 10, 1998, and the
`
`“marking” recitation was not added until the application that matured into the '854
`
`patent was filed years later in August 6, 2001. Therefore, the specification gives
`
`no guidance as to the meaning of this recitation. Accordingly, the plain meaning
`
`of the recitation is that the first information is detected without user intervention
`
`and has some form of marking or highlighting applied to it to draw the user’s
`
`attention to it. (Menascé Decl. M 49-50.)
`
`During prosecution, Applicant attempted to provide an expansive reading of
`
`“marking” in order to demonstrate support for the recitation, and asserted that the
`
`program “marks the ‘first information’ in any of a variety of ways” and “may
`
`display the text (the ‘first information’) to the user.” (Amendment dated April 18,
`
`2007 (Ex. 1004), at 30-31.) The portions of the specification identified relate to
`
`generating another screen, e.g., Fig. 9, and not to any direct marking of the first
`
`information itself (which is already displayed in the document) to provide the
`
`recited alerting function.
`
`Therefore, because the only possible disclosure of
`
`marking to alert in the specification is provision of a separate dialog box, for this
`
`FOX_0009898
`
`

`

`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 13 of 65 PageID #: 24543
`Case 1:13-cv-00919-LPS Document 306-3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 13 of 65 PageID #: 24543
`
`proceeding the marking to alert recitation should be construed to encompass both
`
`direct marking (e.g., highlighting or a pop-up at the information being marked) and
`
`display of the information in a separate dialog box.
`
`B.
`
`“Performing An Operation Related To Second Information”
`
`The term “performing an operation related to second information” appears in
`
`numerous claims.
`
`(See Claims 19, 25, 31, 57, 73, 79, 85, 96, 99.) The broadest
`
`reasonable construction of this term encompasses operations relating to either
`
`already-existing information or the entry of new information, whether it is second
`
`information itself or other information related to second information. Such scope
`
`is consistent with other claims and the various examples contained in the
`
`specification. For example, dependent claim 22 recites the operation as entering
`
`additional data into a database.
`
`In dependent claim 23,
`
`this additional data is
`
`entered by a user, which, for example could be done by the user adding second
`
`information — that is not currently in the database — into the database as described
`
`in connection with Fig. 7 and 6:28-33 and numerous other examples.
`
`In contrast,
`
`in dependent claim 24, the additional data is located within the document. This
`
`can correspond, for example, to Fig. 6, where the data from the document already
`
`exists and is directly added to the database. Therefore, the operation in claim 19
`
`should be construed to encompass both preexisting data and newly entered data
`
`added to the database.

`
`C. Means-Plus-Function Limitations
`
`For means-plus-function limitations, 37 C.F.R. §42.104(b)(3) requires the
`
`petition to identify the structure corresponding to each claimed function. However,
`
`a structure that
`
`is not actually disclosed in the specification cannot be
`
`corresponding structure. Biomedino, LLC v. Waters Techs. Corp., 490 F.3d 946,
`
`948, 952 (Fed. Cir. 2007).
`
`In IPR2013-00152, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board denied institution of
`
`an inter partes review because, among other reasons,
`
`the means-plus-function
`
`limitations were not amenable to construction. Specifically, the Board analyzed
`
`the specification and concluded that there was no corresponding structure disclosed
`
`in the specification to perform the recited function of various limitations.
`
`(Decision (Paper 8 dated August 19, 2013), at l2, 13, 20.)
`
`It is submitted that the
`
`same situation exists with respect to the claims in this Petition having means-plus-
`
`function limitations, i.e., claims 31-35, 79-84, and 99, which are only a subset of
`
`the total claims at issue in this Petition.

`
`V1. GROUNDS BASED ON LIVEDOC/DROP ZONES
`
`A.
`
`Background Of LiveDoc/Drop Zones
`
`The April 1998 issue of SIGCHI Bulletin was dedicated to Apple’s
`
`Advanced Technology Group. The Bulletin included an introduction section and
`
`two articles, by James Miller and Thomas Bonura, describing an Apple technology
`
`that allowed documents to reveal structures for identification and action. The
`
`articles are entitled “From Documents to Object: An Overview of LiveDoc” and
`
`“Drop Zones: An Extension of LiveDoc” and are sequential
`
`in the SIGCHI
`
`Bulletin from pages 53-63 (collectively, “LiveDoc/Drop Zones”). LiveDoc/Drop
`
`Zones thus qualifies as prior art under § 102(a) based on the earliest alleged U.S.
`
`filing date of the '854 patent.
`
`LiveDoc/Drop Zones
`
`discloses
`
`creating
`
`a document
`
`and
`
`entering
`
`information into the document using a text entry application program, such as
`
`shown in Fig. 2 of LiveDoc below.1 (LiveDoc, 53-55.)
`
`1 Fig. 2 is from a website posting (EX. 1010) of LiveDoc and is identical in content
`
`to the LiveDoc publication accompanying this Petition.

`Without user intervention, LiveDoc’s “structure detection” process runs in

`
`perform a related action.
`
`(LiveDoc at 54-55.) Selecting a highlighted structure

`above, the user can view the webpage of the URL identified in the document in
`
`Netscape Navigator.
`
`(LiveDoc at 54, 57-58.) Drop Zones is an interface to
`
`LiveDoc that allows, for example, e-mail actions or adding to an address book
`
`based on an identified name in a document. (Drop Zones at 60-61.)

`LiveDoc at 53 (“There is a real opportunity to advance the
`computing field here, by bringing these two worlds together:
`by enabling an ordinary document, built with any application,
`to automatically offer users access to some of the meaningful
`bits of its content, and by helping users carry out appropriate
`actions on these objects”); at 55 (“[W]e decided to modify a
`simply text editor application, SimpleText, to be a LiveDoc
`client”). Drop Zones uses the same program. See, e.g., at 60
`(referring to a “LiveDoc enabled word processor,
`LiveSimpleText”).
`
`A document including first information, such as a name, an e-
`mail address or a URL, is entered in the first application
`program such as a word processor. See, e.g., document of
`Fig. 2 of LiveDoc (e-mail addresses and URL); document of
`Fig. 2 in Drop Zones (name). Word processor is
