`
`DECLARATION OF ROHAN COELHO REGARDING
`PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF MICROSOFT PLATFORM SDK

`
`

`
`
`
`1. My name is Rohan Coelho. I am the co-author of Exhibit SE1010,
`
`which is a true and correct copy of my book titled “DirectX, RDX, RSX, and
`
`MMX Technology, A Jumpstart Guide to High Performance APIs.” My formal
`
`education includes a Bachelors in Physics and a Masters in Computer Science. I
`
`am currently the Chief Executive Officer of Rexanto, Inc., based in Sunnyvale,
`
`California.
`
`2. From 1989-2001, I was an engineer at Intel Corp., which involved
`
`researching and developing technologies based on Microsoft ActiveMovie,
`
`DirectShow, and Broadcast Architecture. During that time, I directly participated
`
`with Microsoft in developing these technologies, including the predecessors, Video
`
`for Windows, and ActiveMovie, which matured into DirectShow. During that
`
`time, I also researched and published Exhibit SE1010, which is a book that
`
`provides an overview of Microsoft’s DirectShow SDK. Exhibit SE1010 identifies
`
`a first printing in December 1997, which is consistent with my recollection of
`
`when my co-author and I submitted the book to our publisher, Addison-Wesley.
`
`3. As a result, I have personal knowledge of the history concerning
`
`Microsoft’s ActiveMovie, DirectShow, and Broadcast Architecture technologies.
`
`These application programming interfaces (APIs), software development kits
`
`(SDKs), and programmer’s references were publicly released both individually, as
`
`part of Microsoft’s DirectX SDK, and also as part of Microsoft’s larger Platform
`
`SDK over the course of 1996, 1997, and 1998. I regularly received Microsoft’s
`
`SDK releases (including ActiveMovie, DirectShow, DirectX, and Platform). I also
`
`received Microsoft’s white paper publications describing these technologies during
`
`this period, including Exhibits SE1020-SE1023, which are true and correct copies
`
`of Microsoft’s white papers that I received around April 1997.
`
`4.
`
`I have reviewed Exhibit SE1005, which is a single-page PDF of a
`
`scan of a Microsoft disc titled “DISC 6 Platform SDK” and dated “January, 1998.”
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`
`
`
`I have also reviewed the contents of the actual disc shown in Exhibit SE1005,
`
`including electronic files stored on that disc. Microsoft Platform SDK was a
`
`combination of various Microsoft SDKs that was published online and also
`
`physically distributed by Microsoft as part of its MSDN Development Platform. It
`
`was publicly distributed both online and to those who had a subscription to it on
`
`the Microsoft Developer’s Network Library. These SDKs and the Microsoft
`
`Developer’s Network Library were well-known among developers at that time, and
`
`were personally known by me. In fact, I received publicly distributed materials
`
`from Microsoft both online and as part of the Microsoft Developer’s Network
`
`during that time period. I received a number of discs as they were distributed, and
`
`I would have received a copy of the Microsoft Platform SDK disc shown in
`
`Exhibit SE1005.
`
`5. Based on my review of Exhibit SE1005 and the contents of the
`
`actual Microsoft disc shown in Exhibit SE1005, this Microsoft disc appears to be a
`
`true and correct copy of Disc 6 Platform SDK that was publicly distributed by
`
`January of 1998 by Microsoft. The indicia on the face of the disc shown in Exhibit
`
`SE1005 appears authentic and consistent with my recollection of such discs and
`
`materials distributed by Microsoft to engineers and developers during 1997 and
`
`1998. In addition, the January 1998 date shown on the face of the disc is
`
`consistent with my recollection of the timing of its distribution. The Microsoft
`
`Platform SDK’s distribution and the availability of the Microsoft DirectShow SDK
`
`and Broadcast Architecture programmer’s reference is consistent with 1997
`
`electronic timestamps on the files on the disc, the repeated instances of a 1997
`
`copyright date in the file contents, the first printing and publication in December
`
`1997 of my book describing Microsoft DirectShow SDK and directly referencing
`
`its contents (Exhibit SE1010), a December 1997 press release from Microsoft
`
`announcing the release of Microsoft DirectShow SDK (Exhibit SE1008), and a
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`
`November 1997 article describing a conference that year at which Microsoft
`
`Broadcast Architecture SDK was distributed (Exhibit SEIOO7).
`
`6.
`
`I am not an employee of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. or Samsung
`
`Electronics America, Inc.
`
`I have been retained by the counsel for the Petitioner of
`
`the above mentioned inter partes review petition based on my normal hourly
`
`compensation. No part of my compensation is dependent on my testimony or the
`outcome of this proceeding, and I have no other interest in this proceeding.
`
`7.
`
`I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own
`
`knowledge are true and that all statements made on information and belief are
`
`believed to be true; and further that these statements were made with the
`
`knowledge that willful false statement and the like so made are punishable by fine
`
`or imprisonment, or both, under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States
`
`Code.
