In this paper we analyze the existence of a Schur algorithm and obtain coefficient characterizations for the functions in a generalized Schur class. An application to an interpolation problem of ...

Means-plus-function claiming has been disfavored (by and large) since at least 1994 when the Federal Circuit handed down its decision in In re Donaldson, where the Federal Circuit sitting en banc ...

Addressing the question of what corresponding structure must be disclosed to support a means-plus-function claim element, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a district court ...

3 randomly selected fourth-grade classes in each of 2 schools were taught division using the subtractive approach to the Greenwood algorithm, and the remaining classes were taught using a partitioning ...

Modern robotic systems—in drones or autonomous vehicles, for example—use a variety of sensors, ranging from cameras and accelerometers to GPS modules. To date, their correct integration has required ...

A long line of Federal Circuit precedent holds that a function in a software claim under 35 U.S.C. 112, sixth paragraph, must refer to a corresponding “algorithm” in the specification. Absence of an ...
