`

`
`
`
`
`
`I, Mark T. Jones declare as follows:
`
`I.
`
`Introduction
`
`1.
`
`I have prepared this Declaration for consideration by the Patent Trial
`
`and Appeal Board in connection with the above-referenced inter partes review
`
`proceeding.
`
`2.
`
`I am over eighteen years of age, and I would otherwise be competent
`
`to testify as to the matters set forth herein if I am called upon to do so.
`
`3.
`
`I have written this Declaration at the request of and have been retained
`
`by Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, which represents Patent Owner adidas
`
`AG in connection with the above-captioned inter partes review proceeding.
`
`4.
`
`I am being compensated at the rate of $450 per hour for my time spent
`
`working in connection with this matter.
`
`II. Background & Qualifications
`
`5.
`
`In forming my opinions, I relied on my knowledge and experience in
`
`the field and on documents and information referenced in this Declaration.
`
`6.
`
`I am a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia
`
`Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia. I graduated summa cum laude from Clemson
`
`University in 1986 with a B.S. in Computer Science and a minor in Computer
`
`Engineering while holding a National Merit Scholarship and the R. F. Poole
`
`2
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 2 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`Scholarship. I then graduated from Duke University in 1990 with a PhD in
`
`Computer Science while holding the Von Neumann Fellowship.
`
`7.
`
`Upon graduation, I joined the Department of Energy at their Argonne
`
`National Laboratory facility. My responsibilities there included the design and use
`
`of software for computers with hundreds of processing elements. This software
`
`was designed for compatibility with new parallel computer architectures as they
`
`became available as well as with other large software components being written in
`
`the Department of Energy. While with DOE, I received the IEEE Gordon Bell
`
`Prize.
`
`8.
`
`In 1994, I joined the Computer Science faculty at the University of
`
`Tennessee. My teaching responsibilities included computer architecture and
`
`computer networking. My research interests included the design and use of
`
`software that used the collective power of large groups of workstations. While at
`
`the University of Tennessee, I received a CAREER Award from the National
`
`Science Foundation.
`
`9.
`
`In 1997, I joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering faculty at
`
`Virginia Tech. My teaching responsibilities have included the design of embedded
`
`systems, computer organization, computer architecture, a variety of programming
`
`courses, and parallel computing. These courses have included material on data
`
`storage systems, including RAID systems, as well as error detection and correction
`
`3
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 3 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`techniques (e.g., parity bits). I have been cited multiple times on the College of
`
`Engineering’s Dean’s List for teaching.
`
`10.
`
`In addition to the activities, education, and professional experience
`
`listed above, I have been involved in research projects that contribute to my
`
`expertise relating to this declaration. While at Virginia Tech, I have been a primary
`
`or co-investigator on government and industrial research grants and contracts in
`
`excess of five million dollars.
`
`11. The majority of the research contracts undertaken in the laboratory
`
`have involved collaboration and coordination with other groups to build a larger
`
`system. My responsibilities under the SLAAC project (a collaborative effort
`
`funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency involving the
`
`University of Southern California, Sandia National Laboratory, Los Alamos
`
`National Laboratory, Brigham Young University, UCLA, Lockheed-Martin, and
`
`the Navy) included the development of a software system for monitoring,
`
`configuring, and controlling a networked collection of computers hosting
`
`specialized computer hardware. As part of the DSN project (a collaborative effort
`
`funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency involving UCLA and
`
`USC), I was responsible for designing algorithms and software for controlling and
`
`monitoring a large network of autonomous computer sensor nodes. This software
`
`4
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 4 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`was integrated with software from several other teams around the country for a set
`
`of field demonstrations over a three-year period.
`
`12. Other projects have involved the close coupling of computer hardware
`
`and software, including the writing of device drivers and simple operating systems,
`
`the design of hardware circuits, the design of new system architectures integrating
`
`low power data storage, architectures for secure computing, the modification of
`
`complex operating systems, and software for mediating between complex software
`
`packages. My work in e-textiles has focused on new architectures that integrate
`
`fault tolerant networks. I have designed image transmission systems for reliably
`
`transmitting images over wireless links using compression and error-correction
`
`techniques.
`
`13. A detailed record of my professional qualifications is set forth in
`
`Attachment A to this, which is my curriculum vitae, including a list of
`
`publications, awards, research grants, and professional activities.
`
`III.
`
`Information Considered
`
`14.
`
`In forming my opinions, in addition to my knowledge and experience,
`
`I have considered a variety of documents and things that I have obtained, or that
`
`have been provided to me. This includes U.S. Patent No. 8,092,345, (“the ‘345
`
`patent”). In addition to the ‘345 patent, I have also considered U.S. Patent Nos.
`
`7,905,815, 7,931,562, 8,579,767, 8,725,276, 8,721,502, 8,652,009, 7,292,867,

`
`
`
`7,805,149, 7,941,160, 7,957,752, 8,068,858, and 8,244,226 (collectively “the
`
`Litigation Patents”). I have also considered the file histories of all of these patents.
`
`15.
`
`I studied publicly available information about Under Armour,
`
`MapMyFitness, and their products, including user support sites and server API
`
`descriptions. I have reviewed papers in adidas AG v. Under Armour, Inc. and
`
`MapMyFitness, Inc., Case 1:14-cv-00130-GWS (D. Del.), including briefs written
`
`by the parties, the Court’s Orders, and written discovery responses.
`
`16. Shortly after my engagement with Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton
`
`LLP, I began to download and use the various MapMyFitness mobile applications.
`
`I have downloaded and used the Android and iOS version each of the following
`
`applications and their associated web interfaces; MapMyFitness, MapMyFitness+,
`
`MapMyRun, MapMyRun+, MapMyRide, MapMyRide+, MapMyHike,
`
`MapMyHike+, MapMyDogWalk. I obtained a paid “MVP” subscription from
`
`MapMyfitness that permitted me to use the premium features of each of the
`
`accused MapMyFitness applications. I also obtained network captures that
`
`permitted me to see what data is sent between the apps and servers.
`
`17. A complete list of documents and things considered for purposes of
`
`this Declaration can be found as Attachment B to this Declaration.

`

`
`
`
`IV. Person of Ordinary Skill in the Art
`
`18.
`
`I have been informed that “a person of ordinary skill in the relevant
`
`field” is a hypothetical person to whom an expert in the relevant field could assign
`
`a routine task with reasonable confidence that the task would be successfully
`
`carried out. In my opinion, a person of ordinary skill in the art would have at least
`
`a bachelor’s degree in electrical or computer engineering and three years of
`
`practical experience with sensing, signaling, and embedded systems. As of the
`
`relevant time period I was at least a person of ordinary skill in the art.
`
`V. Claim Construction
`
`19.
`
`I understand that for purposes of an inter partes review of an
`
`unexpired patent, all claims are to be construed with the broadest reasonable
`
`interpretation in light of the specification. I have reviewed and considered the
`
`Board’s discussion of the term “common file format” in the Institution Decision.
`
`VI. Analysis
`
`20. My primary task for purposes of this declaration was to determine
`
`whether
`
`the Under Armour MapMyFitness MapMyFitness, MapMyWalk,
`
`MapMyHike, MapMyRun, MapMyRide, MapMyFitness+, MapMyWalk+,
`
`MapMyHike+, MapMyRun+, MapMyRide+, and MapMyDogwalk mobile
`
`applications, their respective web interfaces and server software and associated
`
`7
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 7 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`products embody or practice the inventions of claims 1-3, 6-11, 15-17, and 20 of
`
`the ‘345 patent.
`
`A. Overview of the ‘345 Patent
`
`21. The ‘345 patent describes a customizable, modular personal network
`
`system wherein the individual components are designed to be worn, carried or
`
`used on or about the user. Ex. 1001 at Abstract. In particular, the ‘345 patent
`
`claims a portable electronic journal designed to be worn or carried by a user and a
`
`method of providing said portable electronic journal. Ex. 1001 at 71:30-72:57.
`
`Independent claim 1 is an exemplary claim of the ‘345 patent:
`
`A portable electronic journal configured to be worn or carried
`
`by a user comprising a memory to store journal entries, journal
`
`software with which a user interacts and creates a new journal and is
`
`capable of creating individual text or audio journal entries for the
`
`journal and optionally linking one or more images to the journal, a
`
`user input device that is used in creating journal entries, wherein the
`
`user input device is selected from the group consisting of a voice input
`
`device and a text input device to create journal entries, a digital
`
`camera that creates images to store with the created journal entries, a
`
`clock to tag the journal entries with date and time, a communication
`
`8
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 8 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`
`device to upload the journal entries to a personal computer, and
`
`software to format the journal entries to a common file format.
`
`Ex. 1001 at 71:30-43. Independent claim 20 covers a method of providing a
`
`portable electronic journal that generally corresponds to the limitations of claim 1.
`
`Id. at 72:43-57. Dependent claims 2-3, 6-11, and 15-17 include a variety of
`
`limitations including the types of information collected by the journal, the manner
`
`in which the information is collected, and how information is stored within the
`
`portable electronic journal. Id. at 71:44-72:39.
`
`22. The ‘345 patent issued from U.S. Patent App. No. 12/617,985 filed on
`
`November 13, 2009. The ‘345 patent claims priority to U.S. Provisional
`
`Application No. 60,270,400, filed on February 20, 2001.
`
`B. MapMyFitness Mobile Applications
`
`23. The MapMyFitness products are mobile fitness applications and their
`
`corresponding webpages. As described by the MapMyFitness webpage
`
`http://about.mapmyfitness.com/brand/ (last accessed August 31, 2015)
`
`24.
`
`I have reviewed and used both the free and paid versions of the
`
`MapMyFitness mobile application. I have also reviewed and used certain
`
`
`
`9
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 9 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`peripheral devices, such as the Armour39. I have also used the websites related to
`
`the applications.
`
`25.
`
`I have captured screenshots from the mobile applications and
`
`webpage.
`
`26. As stated above, I have used both the paid and free version of the
`
`MMF Application. In my experience these two applications have substantially the
`
`same features, however, the paid version does not have advertising. The
`
`MapMyFitness webpage states that the difference between these two apps is “ad-
`
`free experience, music controls within the app, and an integrated camera for
`
`pausing
`
`to
`
`take
`
`photos.”
`
`https://support.mapmyfitness.com/hc/en-
`
`us/articles/200118114-What-s-the-Difference-Between-the-Free-and-Apps-.
`
`
`
`I
`
`believe this webpage is out of date, because the free version of the app I reviewed
`
`included both music controls within the app and an integrated camera.
`
`27. Based on my review of the MapMyFitness mobile applications, their
`
`respective web interfaces and server software and associated products, it is my
`
`opinion that the MapyMFitness-branded mobile applications within the same
`
`platform (e.g., the iOS versions of MapMyFitness, MapMyRun, MapMyWalk,
`
`MapMyHike, and MapMyDogWalk) substantially contain the same functionality
`
`with respect to the claimed inventions of the ‘345 patent. Additionally, it is my
`
`opinion that the MMF mobile applications generally have the same functionality
`
`10
`
`Patent Owner adidas AG
`Exhibit 2003 - Page 10 of 47
`
`

`
`
`
`for Android and iOS with respect to the claimed inventions of the ‘345 patent. The
`
`one distinction is that only MVP users of the Android versions of the applications
`
`can use the in-app camera functionality.
`
`28. As shown in the below chart, it is my opinion that the MMF mobile
`
`applications for iOS and Android embody or practice at least claims 1, 6, 7, 8, 9,
`
`10, and 20 of the ‘345 patent.
`
`Claims
`1. A portable
`electronic journal
`configured to be
`worn or carried by
`a user comprising
`
`MapMyFitness Mobile Applications
`The MMF mobile applications operate on a portable mobile
`device such as an Apple iPhone or Android phone, which is
`worn or carried by a user. When installed on one of these
`devices, all the MMF mobile application configure the device
`to act as an electronic fitness journal for tracking health and
`fitness-related activities and information.
