`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Case No. IPR2021-00195
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0010IP1
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R § 42.123(a), and under the authorization granted by the
`
`Board on July 7, 2021, Petitioner hereby moves to submit Exhibit 1040
`
`(“Declaration of Jacob Munford”), Exhibit 1041 (“Declaration of Gordon
`
`MacPherson: Mendelson-2003”), and Exhibit 1042 (“Declaration of Gordon
`
`MacPherson: Mendelson-2006”) as supplemental information.
`
`Petitioner requested authorization to file this motion on July 2, 2021, within
`
`one month of the June 3, 2021 date of institution for IPR2021-00195. As
`
`explained in more detail below, Exhibits 1040 to 1042 provide further testimony
`
`supporting the public accessibility and authenticity of prior art references relied
`
`upon in the challenges set forth in the IPR2021-00195 Petition. For at least that
`
`reason, Exhibits 1040 to 1042 are relevant to a claim for which trial has been
`
`instituted. Accordingly, both requirements of 37 C.F.R § 42.123(a) have been met.
`
`Further, counsel for Petitioner and Patent Owner conferred prior to
`
`Petitioner’s request for authorization to submit this motion, and Patent Owner does
`
`not oppose this motion. Petitioner now so moves.
`
`II. BACKGROUND
`
`On November 20, 2020, Petitioner filed a Petition for inter partes review of
`
`claims 1-14 and 16-30 of U.S. Pat. No. 10,376,190 (“the ’190 patent”), which was
`
`assigned case number IPR2021-00195. On May June 3, 2021, the Board instituted
`1
`
`
`
`

`

`
`trial on all challenged claims of the ’190 patent, determining that Petitioner had
`
`Case No. IPR2021-00195
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0010IP1
`
`demonstrated a reasonable likelihood that Petitioner would prevail in showing the
`
`unpatentability of at least one of the challenged claims.
`
`On June 17, 2021, pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Patent Owner served
`
`Petitioner with objections to evidence, which included assertions that various prior
`
`art references that had been relied upon in the Petition had not been established as
`
`prior art, in addition to objections to the previously-submitted declaration of
`
`librarian Jacob Robert Munford (Exhibit 1026). On June 30, 2021, pursuant to 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(2), and in response to Patent Owner’s objections, Petitioner
`
`served Patent Owner with supplemental evidence including: (1) an additional
`
`declaration from Mr. Munford (“Declaration of Jacob Munford”; Exhibit 1040);
`
`(2) a declaration from IEEE’s Director of Board Governance & IP Operations,
`
`Gordon MacPherson, regarding Mendelson-2003 (“Declaration of Gordon
`
`MacPherson: Mendelson-2003”; Exhibit 1041); and (3) a declaration from IEEE’s
`
`Director of Board Governance & IP Operations, Gordon MacPherson, regarding
`
`Mendelson-2006 (“Declaration of Gordon MacPherson: Mendelson-2006”; Exhibit
`
`1042).
`
`Exhibit 1040 provides further testimony supporting the public accessibility
`
`and authenticity of the prior art references relied upon in the challenges set forth in
`
`the IPR2021-00195 Petition, with supporting appendices.
`2
`
`
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2021-00195
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0010IP1
`
`Exhibit 1041 provides further testimony supporting the public accessibility
`
`
`
`and authenticity of Mendelson-2003 (Exhibit 1024), which was relied upon in the
`
`challenges set forth in the IPR2021-00195 Petition.
`
`Exhibit 1042 provides further testimony supporting the public accessibility
`
`and authenticity of Mendelson-2006 (Exhibit 1016), which was relied upon in the
`
`challenges set forth in the IPR2021-00195 Petition.
`
`On July 2, 2021, Petitioner requested authorization from the Board to file a
`
`motion to submit the declarations of Jacob Robert Munford and Gordon
`
`MacPherson as supplemental information in each of IPR2021-00193, IPR2021-
`
`00195, IPR2021-00208, and IPR2021-00209. On July 7, 2021, the Board
`
`authorized Petitioner to file a motion to submit supplemental information in each
`
`of the indicated proceedings. In accordance with the Board’s authorization,
`
`Petitioner hereby moves to submit Exhibits 1040 to 1042 as supplemental
`
`information in IPR2021-00195.
`
`
`
`III. ARGUMENTS
`
`Under 37 C.F.R. § 42.123(a), a party may file a motion to submit
`
`supplemental information in accordance with the following two requirements: (1)
`
`“A request for the authorization to file a motion to submit supplemental
`
`information is made within one month of the date the trial is instituted”; and (2)
`3
`
`
`
`

`

`
`“The supplemental information must be relevant to a claim for which the trial has
`
`Case No. IPR2021-00195
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0010IP1
`
`been instituted.”
`
`The instant Motion meets both of these requirements. First, Petitioner
`
`requested authorization to file this motion on July 2, 2021, within one month of the
`
`June 3, 2021 date of institution for IPR2021-00195. Second, Exhibits 1040 to
`
`1042 provide further testimony supporting the public accessibility and authenticity
`
`of prior art references relied upon in the challenges set forth in the IPR2021-00195
`
`Petition and, for at least that reason, Exhibits 1040 to 1042 are relevant to a claim
`
`for which trial has been instituted. See, e.g., Valeo v. Magna Elecs., IPR2014-
`
`01204 Pap. 26 at 5 (PTAB Apr. 10, 2015); Palo Alto Networks, Inc. v. Juniper
`
`Networks, Inc., IPR2013-00369 Pap. 37 at 3 (PTAB Feb. 5, 2014)(“[e]vidence that
`
`allegedly confirms the public accessibility of references that serve as the basis of
`
`the grounds of unpatentability authorized…is relevant to the claims of the…patent
`
`for which this trial was instituted”); Motorola Solutions, Inc. v. Mobile Scanning
`
`Tech., IPR 2013-00093 Pap. 37 at 2-3 (PTAB Jun. 28, 2013).
`
`Moreover, like the supplemental information admitted in Valeo, Palo Alto
`
`Networks, and Motorola Solutions, Inc., Exhibits 1040 to 1042 do not change the
`
`grounds of unpatentability authorized in the proceeding, and instead merely
`
`confirm the public accessibility and authenticity of prior art references originally
`
`provided with the Petition. Further, because Patent Owner has been in possession
`4
`
`
`
`

`

`
`of the supplemental information in the form of supplemental evidence since June
`
`Case No. IPR2021-00195
`Attorney Docket: 50095-0010IP1
`
`30, 2021, which is nearly two months prior to the August 27, 2021 due date of the
`
`Patent Owner’s response, the Patent Owner has reasonable time to review Exhibits
`
`1040 to 1042 and is not prejudiced or otherwise burdened by entry of this
`
`supplemental evidence into the record as supplemental information. Similarly, the
`
`entry of Exhibits 1040 to 1042 now, as supplemental information, would not limit
`
`the Board’s ability to complete this proceeding in a timely fashion.
`
`Accordingly, Petitioner respectfully submits that Exhibits 1040 to 1042
`
`should be submitted into evidence as supplemental information, and requests the
`
`same.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`Petitioner respectfully requests that the Board grant this motion to submit
`
`Exhibits 1040 to 1042 as supplemental information in IPR2021-00195.

`
`DECLARATION OF JACOB ROBERT MUNFORD
`
`1
`
`APPLE 1040
`Apple v. Masimo
`IPR2021-00195
`
`

`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1. My name is Jacob Robert Munford. I am over the age of 18, have personal
`
`knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and am competent to testify to the
`
`same.
`
`2. I earned a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) from the
`
`University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2009. I have over ten years of
`
`experience in the library/information science field. Beginning in 2004, I
`
`have served in various positions in the public library sector including
`
`Assistant Librarian, Youth Services Librarian and Library Director. I have
`
`attached my Curriculum Vitae as Appendix A.
`
`3. During my career in the library profession, I have been responsible for
`
`materials acquisition for multiple libraries. In that position, I have cataloged,
`
`purchased and processed incoming library works. That includes purchasing
`
`materials directly from vendors, recording publishing data from the material
`
`in question, creating detailed material records for library catalogs and
`
`physically preparing that material for circulation. In addition to my
`
`experience in acquisitions, I was also responsible for analyzing large
`
`collections of library materials, tailoring library records for optimal catalog
`
`1
`
`2
`
`

`

`search performance and creating lending agreements between libraries
`
`during my time as a Library Director.
`
`
`4. I am fully familiar with the catalog record creation process in the library
`
`sector. In preparing a material for public availability, a library catalog record
`
`describing that material would be created. These records are typically
`
`written in Machine Readable Catalog (herein referred to as “MARC”) code
`
`and contain information such as a physical description of the material,
`
`metadata from the material’s publisher, and date of library acquisition. In
`
`particular, the 008 field of the MARC record is reserved for denoting the
`
`date of creation of the library record itself. As this typically occurs during
`
`the process of preparing materials for public access, it is my experience that
`
`an item’s MARC record indicates the date of an item’s public availability.
`
`
`5. Typically, in creating a MARC record, a librarian would gather various bits
`
`of metadata such as book title, publisher and subject headings among others
`
`and assign each value to a relevant numerical field. For example, a book’s
`
`physical description is tracked in field 300 while title/attribution is tracked in
`
`field 245. The 008 field of the MARC record is reserved for denoting the
`
`creation of the library record itself. As this is the only date reflecting the
`
`inclusion of said materials within the library’s collection, it is my experience
`
`
`
`2
`
`3
`
`

`

`that an item’s 008 field accurately indicates the date of an item’s public
`
`availability.
`
`
`6. This declaration is being drafted as of June 2021. Public and university
`
`libraries in my area have been closed for months due to the COVID-19
`
`pandemic. My state, Pennsylvania, has a travel advisory, which has affected
`
`my ability to travel. In my experience, library catalog records are accurate
`
`descriptions of a library’s collection and my lack of physical access to
`
`libraries at this time creates no doubt in my determinations of authenticity or
`
`availability of the exhibits noted below.
`
`
`7. I have reviewed Exhibit 1024, a copy of an article entitled “Measurement
`
`Site and Photodetector Size Considerations in Optimizing Power
`
`Consumption of a Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter” by Y. Mendelson
`
`and C. Pujary as published in the Proceedings of the 25th Annual
`
`International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology
`
`Society, September 17 – 21, 2003 (hereinafter referred to as “2003 IEEE
`
`conference publication”).
`
`
`8. Attached hereto as Appendix MENDELSON01 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the MARC record for the 2003 IEEE conference publication, as held by the
`
`
`
`3
`
`4
`
`

`

`Pennsylvania State University’s library. I secured this record myself from
`
`the library’s public catalog.
`
`
`9. The MARC record contained within Appendix MENDELSON01 accurately
`
`describes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN number of the 2003 IEEE
`
`conference publication. In comparing the listed fields in Appendix
`
`MENDELSON01 to Exhibit 1024, it is my determination that Exhibit 1024
`
`is a true and correct copy of the “Measurement Site and Photodetector Size
`
`Considerations in Optimizing Power Consumption of a Wearable
`
`Reflectance Pulse Oximeter” article, and that the copy of the 2003 IEEE
`
`conference publication in Pennsylvania State University’s library includes
`
`the article in Exhibit 1024.
`
`
`10. The 008 field of the MARC record noted on page 1 of Appendix
`
`MENDELSON01 indicates that the 2003 IEEE conference publication was
`
`first cataloged by the Pennsylvania State University’s library as of February
`
`4, 2004. Based on this information and considering the dates of the
`
`conference, it is my determination that the 2003 IEEE conference
`
`publication, which included the article published as Exhibit 1024, was made
`
`available to the public by the Pennsylvania State University at least as of
`
`February 4, 2004.
`
`
`
`4
`
`5
`
`

`

`
`
`11. Attached hereto as Appendix IEEE02 is a true and correct copy of a
`
`declaration made by Mr. Gordon MacPherson, “Director Board Governance
`
`& IP Operations of The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers,
`
`Incorporated.” Mr. MacPherson’s declaration Appendix IEEE02 states that
`
`the “IEEE publishes and makes available technical articles and standards” as
`
`part of its “ordinary course of business,” and that these publications are
`
`“made available for public download through the IEEE digital library, IEEE
`
`Xplore.”
`
`
`
`12. Mr. MacPherson’s declaration includes, as Exhibit A, an article referred to
`
`as “Y. Mendelson and C. Pujary, ‘Measurement site and photodetector size
`
`considerations in optimizing power consumption of a wearable reflectance
`
`pulse oximeter’, Proceedings of the 25th Annual International Conference of
`
`the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, September 17 – 21,
`
`2003,” which was obtained “through IEEE Xplore, where it is maintained in
`
`the ordinary course of IEEE’s business.” Exhibit A also includes a screen
`
`capture of the IEEE Xplore portal page for the above-noted article.
`
`
`
`
`
`5
`
`6
`
`

`

`13. In comparing the listed fields in Exhibit A of Appendix IEEE02 to Appendix
`
`MENDELSON01 and comparing Exhibit A of Appendix IEEE02 to Exhibit
`
`1024, it is my determination that Exhibit 1024 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the “Measurement site and photodetector size considerations in optimizing
`
`power consumption of a wearable reflectance pulse oximeter” article, and
`
`that the copy of the 2003 IEEE conference publication in Pennsylvania State
`
`University’s library includes the article in Exhibit 1024.
`
`
`14. I have reviewed Exhibit 1016, a copy of an article entitled “A Wearable
`
`Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological Monitoring” by Y.
`
`Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, as published in the
`
`Proceedings of the 28th Annual International Conference of the IEEE
`
`Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, August 30 – September 3,
`
`2006 (hereinafter referred to as “2006 IEEE conference publication”).
`
`
`15. Attached hereto as Appendix MENDELSON02 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the MARC record for the 2006 IEEE conference publication, as held by
`
`Cornell University’s library. I secured this record myself from the library’s
`
`public catalog.
`
`
`
`
`
`6
`
`7
`
`

`

`16. The MARC record contained within Appendix MENDELSON02 accurately
`
`describes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN number of the 2006 IEEE
`
`conference publication. In comparing the listed fields in Appendix
`
`MENDELSON02 to Exhibit 1016, it is my determination that Exhibit 1016
`
`is a true and correct copy of the “A Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter
`
`for Remote Physiological Monitoring” article, and that the copy of the 2006
`
`IEEE conference publication in Cornell University’s library includes the
`
`article in Exhibit 1016.
`
`
`17. The 008 field of the MARC record noted on page 1 of Appendix
`
`MENDELSON02 indicates that the 2006 IEEE conference publication was
`
`first cataloged by Cornell University’s library as of December 26, 2007.
`
`Based on this information and considering the dates of the conference, it is
`
`my determination that the 2006 IEEE conference publication, which
`
`included the article published as Exhibit 1016, was made available to the
`
`public by Cornell University at least as of December 26, 2007.
`
`
`
`18. Additionally, I accessed a copy of the 2006 IEEE conference publication
`
`through the Pennsylvania State University’s online library catalog portal.

`
`

`

`19. Attached hereto as Appendix MENDELSON06 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the catalog entry for the 2006 IEEE conference publication as maintained by
`
`the Pennsylvania State University. I secured this record myself from the
`
`library’s public catalog.
`
`
`
`20. Attached hereto as Appendix MENDELSON07 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the table of contents for the 2006 IEEE conference publication. I secured this
`
`record, as provided by the Pennsylvania State University’s library through
`
`the catalog entry for the 2006 IEEE conference publication as shown in
`
`Appendix MENDELSON06, myself.
`
`
`
`21. I have reviewed Appendix MENDELSON10, a copy of an article entitled “A
`
`Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological
`
`Monitoring” by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, as
`
`published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication. I secured this document
`
`myself through the table of contents for the 2006 IEEE conference
`
`publication as shown in Appendix MENDELSON07.
`
`
`
`22. Attached hereto as Appendix MENDELSON05 is a true and correct copy of
`
`the MARC record for the 2006 IEEE conference publication, as held by the
`
`
`
`8
`
`9
`
`

`

`Pennsylvania State University’s library in its online catalog indicated by the
`
`catalog entry as shown in Appendix MENDELSON06. The Pennsylvania
`
`State University’s online library catalog entry as shown in Appendix
`
`MENDELSON06 directs the user to a portal page within the IEEE’s online
`
`repository, IEEE Xplore, for an article entitled “A Wearable Reflectance
`
`Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological Monitoring” by Y. Mendelson, R.
`
`J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois. I secured this record myself from the
`
`library’s public catalog through the table of contents listing as captured in
`
`Appendix MENDELSON07.
`
`
`
`23. The MARC record contained within Appendix MENDELSON05 accurately
`
`describes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN number of the 2006 IEEE
`
`conference publication. In comparing the listed fields in Appendix
`
`MENDELSON05 to Appendix MENDELSON10, it is my determination
`
`that (1) Appendix MENDELSON10 is a true and correct copy of the “A
`
`Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological
`
`Monitoring” article by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, as
`
`published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication, that (2) the digital copy
`
`of the 2006 IEEE conference publication in the Pennsylvania State
`
`University’s library catalog includes the article in Appendix
`
`

`
`10
`
`

`

`MENDELSON10, and that (3) the digital copy of the 2006 IEEE conference
`
`publication in the Pennsylvania State University’s library catalog is the same
`
`as the “A Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological
`
`Monitoring” article by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, as
`
`published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication that is made publicly
`
`available by the Pennsylvania State University through the IEEE’s online
`
`repository, IEEE Xplore.
`
`
`
`24. The 008 field of the MARC record noted on page 1 of Appendix
`
`MENDELSON05 indicates that the 2006 IEEE conference publication was
`
`first cataloged by the Pennsylvania State University’s library as of

`December 26, 2007. Based on this information and considering the dates of
`
`the conference, it is my determination that the 2006 IEEE conference
`
`publication, which included the article published as Appendix
`
`MENDELSON10, was made available to the public by the Pennsylvania
`
`State University at least as of December 26, 2007.
`
`
`25. Furthermore, I accessed a copy of the 2006 IEEE conference publication
`
`directly through the IEEE’s online repository, IEEE Xplore.
`
`
`
`
`
`10
`
`11
`
`

`

`26. I have reviewed Appendix MENDELSON12, a copy of an article entitled “A
`
`Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological
`
`Monitoring” by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, as
`
`published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication. I secured this record
`
`myself from the IEEE’s online repository, IEEE Xplore.
`
`
`
`27. Attached hereto as Appendix IEEE01 is a true and correct copy of a
`
`declaration made by Mr. Gordon MacPherson, “Director Board Governance
`
`& IP Operations of The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers,
`
`Incorporated.” Mr. MacPherson’s declaration Appendix IEEE01 states that
`
`the “IEEE publishes and makes available technical articles and standards” as
`
`part of its “ordinary course of business,” and that these publications are
`
`“made available for public download through the IEEE digital library, IEEE
`
`Xplore.”
`
`
`
`28. Mr. MacPherson’s declaration includes, as Exhibit A, an article referred to
`
`as “Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G. Comtois, “A Wearable
`
`Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote Physiological Monitoring”, 2006
`
`International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology
`
`Society, August 30, 2006 - September 3, 2006,” which was obtained

`
`September 3, 2006.”
`
`
`
`29. In comparing the screen capture of the IEEE Xplore portal in Exhibit A of
`
`IEEE01 to the portal to which I was directed from the Pennsylvania State
`
`University’s library system, it is my determination that the IEEE Xplore
`
`portal represented in Exhibit A is the same IEEE Xplore portal (1) to which I
`
`was directed from the Pennsylvania State University’s library system and (2)
`
`through which I secured the article published as Appendix
`
`MENDELSON10.
`
`
`

`
`IEEE01 to the IEEE Xplore portal through which I secured the article
`
`published as MENDELSON12, it is my determination that the IEEE Xplore
`
`portal represented in Exhibit A is the same IEEE Xplore portal through
`
`which I secured the article published as Appendix MENDELSON12.
`
`
`
`32. Based on this information, it is my determination that the IEEE Xplore
`
`portal through which I accessed the IEEE repository and secured the article
`
`published as Appendix MENDELSON12 was authentic.
`
`

`
`MENDELSON02 and to Appendix MENDELSON05 and comparing
`
`Exhibit A of Appendix IEEE01 to Exhibit 1016 and to Appendix
`
`MENDELSON10, it is my determination that each of Exhibit A of Appendix
`
`IEEE01, Exhibit 1016, and Appendix MENDELSON10 is a true and correct
`
`copy of the article entitled “A Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for
`
`Remote Physiological Monitoring” by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and
`
`G. Comtois, as published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication.

`
`noise reference input to an adaptive filter algorithm for signal processing in
`
`a wearable pulse oximeter” by G. Comtois and Y. Mendelson, as published
`
`
`

`
`

`

`in the Proceedings of the 2007 IEEE 33rd Annual Northeast Bioengineering
`
`Conference, March 10 – 11, 2007 (hereinafter referred to as “2007 IEEE
`
`conference publication”). I secured this copy of the 2007 IEEE conference
`
`publication through the Pennsylvania State University’s online library
`
`catalog portal.
`
`
`
`39. Attached hereto as Appendix COMTOIS02 is a true and correct copy of the
`
`catalog entry for the 2007 IEEE conference publication as maintained by the
`
`Pennsylvania State University. I secured this record myself from the
`
`library’s public catalog.
`
`
`
`40. Attached hereto as Appendix COMTOIS03 is a true and correct copy of the
`
`table of contents for the 2007 IEEE conference publication. I secured this
`
`record, as provided by the Pennsylvania State University’s library through
`
`the catalog entry for the 2007 IEEE conference publication as shown in
`
`Appendix COMTOIS02, myself.
`
`
`
`41. Attached hereto as Appendix COMTOIS01 is a true and correct copy of the
`
`MARC record for the 2007 IEEE conference publication, as held by the
`
`Pennsylvania State University’s library in its online catalog. I secured this
`
`
`
`16
`
`17
`
`

`

`record myself from the library's public catalog through the table of contents
`
`listing as captured in COMTOIS03.
`
`
`
`42. The MARC record contained within Appendix COMTOIS01 accurately
`
`describes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN number of the 2007 IEEE
`
`conference publication. In comparing the listed fields in Appendix
`
`COMTOIS01 to COMTOIS04, it is my determination that COMTOIS04 is a
`
`true and correct copy of the “A noise reference input to an adaptive filter
`
`algorithm for signal processing in a wearable pulse oximeter” article, and
`
`that the copy of the 2007 IEEE conference publication in the Pennsylvania
`
`State University’s library includes the article in COMTOIS04.
`
`
`
`43. The 008 field of the MARC record noted on page 1 of Appendix
`
`COMTOIS01 indicates that the 2007 IEEE conference publication was first
`
`cataloged by the Pennsylvania State University’s library as of January 24,
`
`2007. Based on this information and considering the dates of the conference,
`
`it is my determination that the 2007 IEEE conference publication, which
`
`included the article published as Appendix COMTOIS04, was made
`
`available to the public by the Pennsylvania State University at least as of
`
`January 24, 2007.
`
`
`
`17
`
`18
`
`

`

`
`
`44. Attached hereto as Appendix COMTOIS05 is a true and correct copy of the
`
`MARC record for the 2007 IEEE conference publication, as held by
`
`University of Wyoming’s library in its online catalog. I secured this record
`
`myself from the library's public catalog.
`
`
`
`45. The MARC record contained within Appendix COMTOIS05 accurately
`
`describes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN number of the 2007 IEEE
`
`conference publication. In comparing the listed fields in Appendix
`
`COMTOIS05 to COMTOIS04, it is my determination that the copy of the
`
`2007 IEEE conference publication in University of Wyoming’s library
`
`includes the article in COMTOIS04.
`
`
`
`46. The 008 field of the MARC record noted on page 1 of Appendix
`
`COMTOIS05 indicates that the 2007 IEEE conference publication was first
`
`cataloged by University of Wyoming’s library as of January 24, 2007. Based
`
`on this information and considering the dates of the conference, it is my
`
`determination that the 2007 IEEE conference publication, which included
`
`the article published as COMTOIS04, was made available to the public by
`
`University of Wyoming at least as of January 24, 2007.
`
`
`
`18
`
`19
`
`

`

`
`
`47. In reviewing the listed citations at page 2 of COMTOIS04, it is my
`
`determination that the “A noise reference input to an adaptive filter
`
`algorithm for signal processing in a wearable pulse oximeter” article cites
`
`the article entitled “A Wearable Reflectance Pulse Oximeter for Remote
`
`Physiological Monitoring” by Y. Mendelson, R. J. Duckworth, and G.
`
`Comtois, as published in the 2006 IEEE conference publication.
`
`Accordingly, it is my determination that the 2006 IEEE conference
`
`publication containing Exhibit 1016 would have been publicly available at
`
`least as early as the publication date of the 2007 IEEE conference
`
`publication: January 24, 2007.
`
`
`
`48. I have reviewed COMTOIS10, a copy of an article entitled “A Comparative
`
`Evaluation of Adaptive Noise Cancellation Algorithms for Minimizing
`
`Motion Artifacts in a Forehead-Mounted Wearable Pulse Oximeter” by G.
`
`Comtois, Y. Mendelson, and P. Ramuka, as published in the Proceedings of
`
`the 29th Annual International Conference of the IEEE EMBS Cité
`
`Internationale, Lyon, France, August 23 – 26, 2007 (hereinafter referred to
`
`as “2007 IEEE EMBS conference publication”).
`
`
`
`
`
`19
`
`20
`
`

`

`49. I obtained a copy of the 2007 IEEE EMBS conference publication through
`
`the Pennsylvania State University’s online library catalog portal.
