THE UNITED STATES INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. Before The Honorable Carl C. Charneski Administrative Law Judge

In the Matter of

CERTAIN PERSONAL DATA AND Investigation No. 337-TA-710 MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES AND RELATED SOFTWARE

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE NOKIA’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE OF PRIOR ART OUT OF TIME

Pursuant to Commission Rule 210.15, Respondents Nokia Corporation and Nokia Inc. respectfully move the Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) for leave to file one day out of time

Nokia’s Motion for Leave to File Amended and Supplemental Notice of Prior Art. Pursuant to

Order No. 58, Nokia’s motion for leave was due on December 6, 2010. Nokia initiated the process for filing its Motion and some of the exhibits thereto (attached as Exh. 1) on EDIS before the 5:15pm EST deadline. Due to technical difficulties associated with the creation of the final

PDF file and network connectivity issues, however, Nokia’s upload time extended beyond the deadline and Nokia was unable to complete its filing (see Exh. 2, EDIS Filing Confirmation).

Nokia served Apple and the OUII Staff with its Motion and all exhibits in two service emails on

December 6 (see Exh. 3, 12/6/10 T. Brooks Emails). Nokia has adjusted its internal processes in an attempt to address these technical and network difficulties in the future.

Counsel for Apple and the Staff indicated that they do not oppose this motion for leave. Given the importance of this filing and the lack of prejudice to the parties, Nokia respectfully requests that the ALJ grant Nokia’s motion for leave to file its Motion for Leave to

File an Amended and Supplemental Notice of Prior Art one day out of time.

In the Matter of

CERTAIN PERSONAL DATA AND Investigation No. 337-TA-710 MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES AND RELATED SOFTWARE

NOKIA’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE OF PRIOR ART

Pursuant to Commission Rule 210.15 and Ground Rule 5, Respondents Nokia

Corporation and Nokia, Inc. (collectively, “Nokia”) respectfully move for leave to supplement their Notice of Prior Art filed on September 24, 2010.

Since filing its September 24 Notice of Prior Art, Nokia has conducted substantial additional discovery that has identified additional information relating to the prior art

Nokia identified in its notice. Nokia has also determined that it no longer intends to rely on certain references identified in the notice, and Apple has terminated the Investigation against Respondents with respect to four of the six patents asserted against Nokia.

Accordingly, Nokia requests leave to file the Amended and Supplemental Notice of Prior

Art (Ex. A) to specifically identify the additional information located in discovery after

September 24th, and remove from the Notice the art on which Nokia no longer relies.

Apple has refused to consent to Nokia’s Amended and Supplemental Notice because in its view the Notice adds prior art not previously disclosed in the September 24

Notice. Nokia disagrees, and as explained below, has good cause to supplement the Notice to specifically identify additional evidence relating to the systems it identified previously. The evidence to which Apple objects can be broken down into two categories: (i) documents obtained from third-parties after the filing of the September 24

Notice of Prior Art, and (ii) prior art that was identified explicitly in the September 24

Notice, and (iii) prior art that was identified explicitly in the September 24 Notice as application for all asserted patents.

With respect to the additional documents obtained from third parties,

Respondents’ September 24 Notice of Prior Art identified a number of third-party systems that were prior art to various patents, along with a number of references relating to each system that had been located by Respondents by September 24 as a result of

Respondents’ diligent discovery efforts prior to that date. After filing the September 24

Notice, and as envisioned by the Procedural Schedule, Respondents’ third-party discovery efforts continued and Respondents sought additional discovery relating to the identified prior art systems from numerous sources. Through this discovery,

Respondents have obtained additional evidence concerning a number of the third-party systems – each of which was properly identified on September 24.

With respect to Apple’s second objection, it is Apple’s position that the

September 24 Notice required Respondents to specifically list each prior art reference under a heading for each asserted patent, even if many of the references applied to more than one of the asserted patents. Rather than repeating the full list of prior art for each patent, Respondents identified the references specific to each patent, but specifically incorporated the other references identified elsewhere in the Notice. Apple’s objection on this point is therefore entirely semantic. It cannot dispute that Respondents identified

2 the full range of references listed in the September Notice for each asserted patent, and nothing more is required.

Because each of these references were disclosed in the September 24 Notice,

Apple’s objection to their inclusion in Nokia’s Amended and Supplemental Notice should be rejected.

Apple indicated that it intends to oppose the Motion.

Dated: December 6, 2010 Respectfully submitted,

In the Matter of

CERTAIN PERSONAL DATA AND Investigation No. 337-TA-710 MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES AND RELATED SOFTWARE

NOKIA’S MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE OF PRIOR ART INTRODUCTION

Since filing its September 24, 2010 Notice of Prior Art, Nokia has conducted substantial additional discovery that has identified additional information relating to the prior art Nokia identified in its notice. Nokia has also determined that it no longer intends to rely on certain references identified in the notice, and Apple has terminated the

Investigation against Respondents with respect to four of the six patents asserted against

Nokia. Accordingly, Nokia requests leave to file the Amended and Supplemental Notice of Prior Art to specifically identify the additional information located in discovery after

September 24th, and remove from the Notice the art on which Nokia no longer relies (see

Ex. A; section relating to the 705 and 263 patents).

Apple has refused to consent to Nokia’s Amended and Supplemental Notice because in its view the Notice adds prior art not previously disclosed in the September 24

Notice. Nokia disagrees, and as explained below, has good cause to supplement the

Notice to specifically identify additional evidence relating to the systems it identified previously. The evidence to which Apple objects can be broken down into two categories: (i) documents obtained from third-parties after the filing of the September 24

Notice of Prior Art, and (ii) prior art that was identified explicitly in the September 24

Notice, and (iii) prior art that was identified explicitly in the September 24 Notice as application for all asserted patents.

With respect to the additional documents obtained from third parties,

1 Respondents’ diligent discovery efforts prior to that date. After filing the September 24

Respondents have obtained additional evidence concerning a number of the third-party systems – each of which was properly identified on September 24. This new evidence can be broken down as follows:

 Additional evidence concerning VCOS produced by third-party John Lynch and third-party LSI;

 Additional evidence concerning MWave produced by third-party Texas Instruments and third-party IBM;

 Additional evidence concerning PC Media produced by third-party Freescale;

 Additional evidence concerning Open Signal Processing Architecture (OSPA) produced by third-parties Intel, Robert Frankel, Microsoft, and Texas Instruments;

 Additional evidence concerning Intel Proshare/Project Mikado produced by third-parties Intel, Robert Frankel, and Texas Instruments;

 Additional evidence concerning Microsoft Resource Manager Interface System, produced by third-party Microsoft;

 Additional evidence concerning X Windows, produced by third-party MIT; and

 Additional evidence concerning NeWS, produced by third-party Sun Microsystems.

Respondents now seek to supplement their notice of prior art with the additional evidence about these systems that was received after September 24th. Respondents address each of these categories of evidence in more detail below.

2 With respect to Apple’s second objection, it is Apple’s position that the

Because each of these references were disclosed in the September 24 Notice,

Apple’s objection to their inclusion in Nokia’s Amended and Supplemental Notice should be rejected.

Accordingly, Nokia requests leave to file the attached Amended and

Supplemental Notice of Prior Art.

I. LEGAL STANDARD

Motions for leave to supplement a notice of prior art to account for third-party production of materials subsequent to the initial date of prior art notices are routinely granted. See, e.g., Certain Personal Data and Mobile Communications Devices and

Related Software, Inv. No. 337-TA-710, Order No. 40, 2010 WL 4790273 (Nov. 9, 2010)

(granting-in-part motion to supplement with respect to “Materials Received Pursuant to

Third Party Subpoenas” after the initial prior-art notice deadline); Certain Integrated

Circuits, Chip Sets, and Products Containing Same Including Televisions, Media Players, and Cameras, Inv. No. 337-TA-709, Order No. 18, 2010 WL 4780167 (Sept. 15, 2010)

(granting motion to supplement with respect to prior art identified during a deposition);

3 Certain Electronic Devices, Including Mobile Phones, Portable Music Players, and

Computers, Inv. No. 337-TA-701, Order No. 27, 2010 WL 4778774 (July 30, 2010)

(“Electronic Devices”) (granting-in-part Apple’s motion to supplement with respect to third-party production noting that “Apple sought to provide a placeholder in its Notice to apprise the parties of the anticipated discovery by nonparty Motorola…”); Certain

Semiconductor Devices, DMA Systems, and Products Containing Same, Inv. No. 337-

TA-607, Order No. 33, 2008 WL 618219 (Mar. 3, 2008) (granting motion to supplement new prior art as a result of “third party production”); Certain Personal Computers, Server

Computers, and Components Thereof, Inv. No. 337-TA-509, Order No. 37, 2005 WL

568607 (Mar. 7, 2005) (granting motion as to art “obtained from third-party discovery after the original notice of prior art”).

Importantly, Respondents provided notice for each of the prior-art systems at issue here in their September 24, 2010 notices of prior art. The instant motion merely seeks to specifically identify additional documentation relating to those systems that was obtained after the September 24 notice from third-parties pursuant to Respondents’ diligent discovery efforts. In a similar situation, Apple indicated that a complainant is adequately on notice of such systems when those systems are identified in the original notice, despite the later receipt of additional information. Specifically, Apple stated that,

“Anticipating [third-party] Motorola's production of prior art relevant to the '091 patent,

Apple disclosed in its May 17 Notice of Prior Art that it intended to rely on 'VCO modules that practice [certain Motorola patents] that were publicly described, publicly sold, or offered for sale prior to December 19, 1999, including but not limited to devices, and products comprising those modules'…” Ex. D at 2-3, 7. The ALJ agreed, holding

4 that “With respect the Motorola References, the ALJ finds that Apple's motion with respect to these references should be GRANTED. … Furthermore, Apple sought to provide a placeholder in its Notice to apprise the parties of the anticipated discovery by nonparty Motorola." Electronic Devices, Order No. 27, 2010 (emphasis added).

Similarly, just this past Friday, counsel for Apple acknowledged that art is not

“new” when it simply provides additional information concerning systems previously identified (Transcript of Dec. 3, 2010 hearing at 24:14-17s (“… this isn't new prior art.

This is simply additional information about what they have been contending is prior art since the very beginning of this investigation.”).1

II. 263 PATENT

A. Additional Evidence Concerning VCOS

Respondents original notice of prior art served on September 24 identified the

VCOS system as prior art to the 263 patent. In addition, the September 24 notice identified approximately 20 prior art publications related VCOS (see Ex. B at 10, 14; Ex.

C. at 206, 211, 214, 218, and 220). The VCOS system was sold by AT&T in the early

1990’s.

Based on Respondents’ investigation of VCOS, Respondents determined that third-party LSI acquired the VCOS technology. Respondents therefore served a subpoena on LSI on September 16, 2010 requesting, among other things, documents related to VCOS.

1 Notwithstanding this acknowledgement, Apple has objected to Respondents including on their notice of prior art the additional information that Apple itself produced only a few days ago.

5 After diligently searching for documents concerning this 20-year-old system, LSI located and produced documents concerning VCOS responsive the subpoena on

November 2, 2010 (see Ex. E). These documents include the VCOS source and object code. It also includes a number of software and hardware development kits. The source code, object code, and development kits were unavailable to Respondents until they were produced by LSI in November. Respondents therefore request leave to add the following additional references concerning VCOS produced by LSI on November 2, 2010, to its

Notice of Prior Art:

 VCOS DSP Module Dev. Kit version 1.1 (LSI0000001);

 VCOS Hardware Dev. Kit version 1.1 (LSI00000119);

 VCOS Software Dev. Kit version 1.1 (LSI00000181);

 Cathedral DSP API manual, rev 1.7.02 (LSI00000409);

 VCOS DSP Module Dev. Kit version 1.1 (LSI00000522);

 VCOS Multimedia Dev. Kit Technical Reference, Beta Version 0.04a (LSI00000642);

 VCOS Multimedia Dev. Kit Technical Reference, Version 1.0 (LSI00000826);

 VCOS Software Dev. Kit version 1.1 (LSI00001026); and

 VCOS Source and Object Code

In addition, Respondents also sent a subpoena to John Lynch, one of the inventors listed on the face of the 263 patent, on October 29, 2010. Based on documents produced by Apple demonstrating that AT&T and Apple jointly worked on VCOS, Respondents requested that Mr. Lynch search for and produce documents related to this System.

Mr. Lynch subsequently produced documents responsive to this subpoena on November

4, 2010 (see Ex. F). Mr. Lynch’s documents contained additional source code and object

6 code for VCOS. Mr. Lynch also produced additional software development kits for

VCOS. Respondents therefore request permission to add the following additional references concerning VCOS produced by Mr. Lynch on November 4, 2010, to their notice of prior art:

 VCOS Source and Object Code produced by John Lynch.

In sum, Respondents provided Apple with notice of the prior art VCOS system on

September 24th. Respondents also provided notice to Apple of almost twenty references describing this system on that same day. However, despite Respondents’ diligent efforts searching for prior art, Respondents obtained additional information concerning VCOS from third-parties LSI on November 2, 2010 and John Lynch on November 4, 2010.

Respondents therefore respectfully request that the ALJ grant Respondents permission to update their notice of prior art to add additional references concerning the previously identified VCOS system.

B. Additional Evidence Concerning MWave

Respondents also identified MWave on their September 24th Notice of Prior Art along with approximately 15 references describing the MWave system (see Ex. B. at 6-

11, 14; Ex. C. at 207-211, 215, 220). MWave was a system released by IBM and Texas

Instruments (“TI”) in the early 1990’s. Respondents therefore sent subpoenas to both

IBM and TI on October 5th and September 28th respectively.

TI responded to Respondents’ subpoena with additional information about

MWave on November 15, 2010 and November 18, 2010 (see Ex. G). Specifically, on

November 15th TI produced, among other things, source code for MWave and a two- page technical brief concerning the system. Despite conducting a diligent search for information about MWave prior to September 24th, Respondents were unable to obtain

7 this information from any other source prior to its production by TI on November 15th.

Respondents therefore respectively request permission to add the following references to their notice of prior art:

 MWave Source Code (TI0001230-1240; 1248-1298; 1475-2198; 2215- 2460; 2609-3028; 3084-3281; 3360-3473; 4079-4219; 4222-4232); and

 Details on Signal Processing (TI00019-20).

Moreover, on November 18th, TI produced a copy of a technical brief concerning

MWave. Respondents had previously been aware of the technical brief, but had not been able to obtain a copy. Respondents had therefore listed the technical brief by general description on their September 24th Notice of Prior Art as the “Texas Instruments

Mwave Multimedia System Product Bulletin, 1992.” Respondents now seek to update their notice of prior art to include a reference to the correct title of this technical brief:

“MWave Multimedia System Technical Brief” (TI00027-67).

Because Respondents obtained information about the MWave system after the

September 24 deadline from third parties and because Respondents were unable to obtain this information prior to the September 24 deadline, Respondents respectfully request to add these additional citations concerning MWave to their Notice of Prior Art.

C. Additional Evidence Concerning PC Media System

Respondents also identified on its September 24 Notice of Prior Art the PC Media

System from Motorola. As with the VCOS and MWave systems, Respondents

September 24 Notice included prior art references describing the PC Media System (see

Ex. B. at 15; Ex. C at 215, 221).

On August 5, 2010, Respondents therefore sent a subpoena to third-party

Freescale Semiconductors (“Freescale”) seeking information concerning the PC Media

8 system. Despite its diligent search, Freescale was unable to produce information concerning this 20-year-old system until October 26, 2010 (see Ex. H). Respondents now seek to update their notice of prior art to add citations to the following references concerning this system produced by Freescale:

 Timer API, Motorola PC Media (FREE001886-1893)

 BOS 3.0 Upgrade Guide (FREE002317-2318)

 HIG SAMPLE IMPLEMENTATION - DSP API (FREE002467-2472)

 DTMF Detection on the DSP56002 (FREE003167-3205)

 Functional Specification, Motorola PC Media Deliverable to Peavey (FS- P01_modified.doc) (FREE002319-2349)

 PC-Media Host Interface Debugger, Command Summary (FREE002457)

 HIG Channel 1 – Task Manager Support, Version 1.1 (FREE002473- 2479)

 Motorola Codex, PC-Media Host Interface Gateway Specification, Revision 0.2 (FREE001034-1055)

 HIGTSR Design Spec. (FREE002381-2396)

 MBOS, API, Revision 0.3, PC Media (FREE001056-1078)

 HIG / BOS comparison to MBOS (mbosdes1.doc) (FREE001283-85)

 PCMedia, BOS 3.0 / MBOS Differences, Revision 0.1 (mbosdes3.doc) (FREE001292-1296)

 PCMedia, BOS 3.0 / MBOS Differences, Revision 0.1 (mbosdesc.doc) (FREE001297-1302)

 Preliminary Draft, PCMedia, MBOS Programming Guide, Version 1.0 (mmbos1.doc) (FREE001423-1547)

 Motorola PC Media, Patch MBOS Location (simboot.doc) (FREE001996)

 Source code for PC Media (FREE002487-2503; FREE000652-0750; FREE000835-000938; FREE003351-3388; FREE3733-3758; FREE3802- 3807).

9 Because Respondents were unaware of this prior to the September 24th deadline and were unable to obtain the information prior to its production by Freescale on October

26, 2010, Respondents now request permission to add this additional information concerning the PC Media System to their Notice of Prior Art.

D. Additional Evidence Concerning OSPA

Similar to the above, Respondents identified the OSPA system on September 24th

(see Ex. B. at 13; Ex. C at 219). OSPA was developed by Spectron Microsystems in the early 1990s. As with the PC Media system, before September 24th, Respondents had been unable to obtain many publications describing the system. Nevertheless,

Respondents had listed the two technical publications describing the system of which they were aware on their original Notice of Prior Art.

Respondents sent subpoenas to a number of third-parties with knowledge of

OSPA, including Intel (subpoena served September 9), Robert Frankel (served November

4), Microsoft (served September 22), and Texas Instruments (served September 28).

Each of these third parties produced documents after September 24, 2010: Intel on

November 27, 2010 (see Ex. I); Mr. Frankel on November 24, 2010 (see Ex. J);

Microsoft on November 4, 2010 (see Ex. K); and TI on November 30, 2010 (see Ex. G).

Respondents now seek to update their notice of prior art to add citations to the following references concerning this system produced by these third-parties:

 OSPA Drawings from Mark Grosen (Texas Instruments) deposition (exhibits 1, 4, and 5)

 OSPA Demonstration System Picture (FRK000239- 1240)

 Software Architecture for Intel's PC Multifunction I/O board (477DOC000008-00155)

10  DSP Research Announces the Tiger 30 DSP Development Environment (FRK000116-120)

 DSP Research Tiger 30 publication (FRK000122-128)

 Tiger Telephone Interface (FRK-000121)

 Overview of SPOX and Windows DSP Software Architecture Fact Sheet (MSFT710-0315-0318)

 Operating System Boosts DSP Performance, High Performance Magazine (FRK000316-321)

 Texas Instruments (Spectron Microsystems) OSPA and Mikado Source Code (TI-009852)

 SPOX, System Software Solutions for PC Signal Computing, Analog Devices (FRK000284-288)

 SPOX, System Software Solutions for PC Signal Computing, Texas Instruments (FRK000291-295)

 Mikado Post Mortem (477DOC000001-477DOC000007)

Because Respondents were unaware of this prior to the September 24th deadline and were unable to obtain the information prior to its production by Intel on November

27, 2010, Mr. Frankel on November 24, 2010, Microsoft on November 4, 2010, or TI on

November 30, 2010. Respondents now request permission to add this additional information concerning this prior art system to their Notice of Prior Art.

E. Additional Evidence Concerning Microsoft’s Resource Manager Interface System

A similar story applies to Microsoft’s Resource Manager Interface System.

Respondents identified the system on their September 24 Notice of Prior Art (see Ex. B at

6, 8, 15; Ex. C at 209, 222). Respondents also identified the reference of which they were aware concerning the system. On October 5, 2010, Respondents served Microsoft with a subpoena seeking, among other things, information related to the Resource

11 Manager Interface System. Microsoft diligently searched for and produced information related to the Resource Manager Interface on November 14th (see Ex. K). Respondents now seek to add the following information to their notice of prior art, which consists of copies of presentations given concerning the system and internal descriptions of the system:

 Microsoft DSP Architecture: Audio Product Unit, WinHEC 1994 (MSFT710-0433 − MSFT710-0446)

 Audio of WinHEC 1994, including Microsoft DSP Architecture: Audio Product Unit (MSFT710-0572)

 Microsoft Delivers DSP Resource Manager Interface and Speech API (MSFT710-0289-0293)

 Microsoft Corporation Joins with Spectron Microsystems to Deliver DSP Software Architecture (MSFT710-0307-0308)

Because Respondents were unaware of this prior to the September 24th deadline and were unable to obtain the information prior to its production by Microsoft on

November 14, 2010. Respondents now request permission to add this additional information concerning this prior art system to their Notice of Prior Art.

III. 705 PATENT

A. Additional Evidence Concerning NeWS

Network Extensible Window System (or NeWS) is a windowing system that was developed by Sun Microsystems (now part of Oracle Corporation). Respondents identified NeWS as prior art in their September 24, 2010 Notices of Prior Art (see Ex. B at 59; Ex. C at 19). On August 20, 2010, Respondents served Sun/Oracle with a subpoena seeking, among other things, additional information related to NeWS.

Sun/Oracle’s lack of timely compliance with the subpoena resulted in a motion filed with the ALJ November 12. Ultimately, though, Sun/Oracle produced documents on

12 December 1, 2010 (see Ex. L). Respondents now seek to add the following information to their notice of prior art:

 Sun/Oracle production materials relating to NeWS numbered ORA0000676-9237.

Because these materials were not produced to Respondents until after the

September 24th deadline and were unable to obtain the information prior to its production by Sun/Oracle on December 1, 2010. Respondents now request permission to add this additional information concerning this prior art system to their Notice of Prior Art.

B. Additional Evidence Concerning X Windows

X Windows is a system that originated at the Massachusetts Institute of

Technology in the mid-1980’s. Respondents identified X Windows and several references relating to X Windows as prior art in their September 24, 2010 Notices of

Prior Art (see Ex. B at 19, 23, 40-43; Ex. C at 23, 24, 30). On September 8, 2010,

Respondents served MIT with a subpoena seeking, among other things, additional information related to X Windows. MIT lack of timely compliance with the subpoena resulted in a motion filed with the ALJ (see Order No. 25). Ultimately, though, MIT produced documents on October 19 and October 27, 2010 (see Ex. M). Respondents now seek to add the following information to their notice of prior art:

 MIT production materials relating to X Windows numbered MIT0000001- 0000892.

Because Respondents were unaware of this prior to the September 24th deadline and were unable to obtain the information prior to its production by MIT on October 19

& 27, 2010. Respondents now request permission to add this additional information concerning this prior art system to their Notice of Prior Art.

13 IV. ADDITIONAL PRIOR ART OBJECTED TO BY APPLE

Despite the fact that additional references were explicitly disclosed to Apple on

Respondents’ September 24, 2010 Notices of Prior Art, Apple maintains objections to various additional prior-art references.

A. References Explicitly Disclosed for the 705 Patent

Apple objects to two references that were explicitly disclosed for the 705 Patent in the September 24 Notices:

Prior Art to Which Apple Objects September 24, 2010 Notice of Prior Art Inside Macintosh, Vol VI Chapter 5 – Apple Computer, Inc., Inside Macintosh, vol. VI Event Manager; Chaper 6 – Apple Table of Contents, 5-1 through 6-117, 1991. Event Manager (APPHTC_00011956- [See Ex. B at 62.] 12135) All documents that have been or will All documents that have been or will be be produced by Apple related to produced by Apple related to System 7, including without limitation System 7, including without limitation APPHTC-00012529-APPHTC- APPHTC-00012529-APPHTC- 00013264; APPNOK1162947- 00013264; APPNOK1162947- APPNOK1163076; APPNOK1163076; APPNOK1175370- APPNOK1175370-APPNOK1175372; APPNOK1175372; APPN0K1208785; APPNOK1208785; APPNOK3527470- APPNOK3527470-APPNOK3527477 APPNOK3527477.

Moreover, the first reference (Inside Macintosh) is art cited during the prosecution of the

705 Patent.

Because Respondents identified this art on their respective Notices of Prior Art on

September 24, 2010, it is properly included in Nokia’s Amended and Supplemental

Notice

14 1. XBoard / GNU Chess

XBoard/GNU Chess is a chess gaming system that originated late-1980’s. The

Respondents explicitly identified XBoard/GNU Chess as prior art to the 705 Patent in their September 24 Notices of Prior Art. Specifically, all of the following was included in the Respondents’ Notices of Prior Art, as follows:

 The GNU Chess Engine/Xboard GUI, as illustrated by, for example http://www.timmann.org/history.html and http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engineintf.html.

The cited web cites included source code for these systems, as well as additional discussions of the system, its evolution, and how it functioned. Thus, there can be no legitimate dispute that the GNU Chess Engine/Xboard GUI was fully disclosed in the September 24 Notice.

The GNU Chess Engine/Xboard GUI, as illustrated by, for example http://www.timmann.org/history.html and http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine- intf.html

No, I had no idea that so many people were interested in writing chess programs. Originally, xboard and WinBoard were simply graphical user interfaces for GNU Chess, then for GNU Chess and Internet chess servers. Because the GUI and the chess engine are separate programs, several people thought of the idea of connecting their own chess programs in place of GNU Chess, and they began to email me asking how to do it. I think the first person to ask was Shay Bushinsky, in November 1994. Over the years I received so many requests for this information that I was more or less forced into documenting and extending the ad-hoc engine protocol to support them. The document that exists now (chessengines. html) evolved directly from the original email reply I sent to Shay. … I've never had a plan. I got started working on xboard by chance: Some time in 1991, I wanted to play a game of chess, so I went looking on the Internet for free chess software. I found GNU Chess 4.0, which was then under active development by a team coordinated by Stuart Cracraft, and a graphical interface for it called xboard 1.2 that had just been written by Chris and Dan Sears.

The GNU Chess Engine/Xboard GUI, as illustrated by, for example http://www.timmann.org/history.html and http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine- intf.html

Illegal move: MOVE Illegal move (REASON): MOVE If your engine receives a MOVE command that is recognizably a move but is not legal in the current position, your engine must print an error message in one of the above formats so that xboard can pass the error on to the user and retract the move. The (REASON) is entirely optional. Examples: Illegal move: e2e4 Illegal move (in check): Nf3 Illegal move (moving into check): e1g1

Generally, xboard will never send an ambiguous move, so it does not matter whether you respond to such a move with an Illegal move message or an Error message.

Error (ERRORTYPE): COMMAND If your engine receives a command it does not understand or does not implement, it should print an error message in the above format so that xboard can parse it. Examples: Error (ambiguous move): Nf3 Error (unknown command): analyze Error (command not legal now): undo Error (too many parameters): level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

move MOVE Your engine is making the move MOVE. Do not echo moves from xboard with this command; send only new moves made by the engine.

See http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine-intf.html.

The GNU Chess Engine/Xboard GUI, as illustrated by, for example http://www.timmann.org/history.html and http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine- intf.html

An xboard chess engine runs as a separate process from xboard itself, connected to xboard through a pair of anonymous pipes. The engine does not have to do anything special to set up these pipes. xboard sets up the pipes itself and starts the engine with one pipe as its standard input and the other as its standard output. See http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine-intf.html.

16 At the beginning of each game, xboard sends an initialization string. See http://home.hccnet.nl/h.g.muller/engine-intf.html.

See Ex. B at 64; Ex. C at 25, 607, 623, 629-630, 635-636, and 643-644 (bolded emphasis added).

The references on which Respondents intend to rely are that which was disclosed in the original Notices of prior art, as follows:

 XBoard GUI (710NOKIA03716515-575; 710NOKIA03851601-666 (and its native version at HTC007743316)); and

 The GNU Chess Engine (710NOKIA03850878-1575).

Because Respondents identified the GNU chess engine/Xboard GUI system on their respective September 24 Notice, Apple has had full notice that Nokia intended to rely on this system. The additional documentation located after the September 24 Notice provides further information about that system, and Nokia should be allowed to supplement its Notice to add those materials.

B. References Explicitly Disclosed as Prior Art for All Patents.

Apple also objects to numerous references that it concedes were explicitly included within the Respondents’ September 26, 2010 Notices of Prior Art, but which

Apple objects as being disclosed as art for all patents-in-suit, as opposed to specifically designated for the 705 Patent.

In Nokia’s September 24, 2010 Notice of Prior Art, for example, Nokia explicitly notified Apple that, “For the purposes of convenience only, the references, prior art systems, and persons with knowledge are categorized by patent. Each entry listed under each asserted patent also serves as notice for all of the five asserted patents”(See Ex. B at 2). Similarly, HTC’s September 24, 2010 Notice explicitly notified Apple that,

“Respondents may rely on the prior art references listed in this section as prior art for any

17 of the asserted patents” (see Ex. C at 1, 19, 31, 45, 64, 77, 152, 201, and 224). As a result, Apple was explicitly on notice on September 24, 2010 that the art disclosed by either Respondent was being disclosed with respect to each of the patents asserted against the respective respondent.

The following chart demonstrates that each of the references to which Apple objects was properly disclosed on September 24, 2010:
