"Your Guide to the America Invents Act (AIA)," The Ohio State Bar AssociationDinsmore & Shohl LLP
The America Invents Act (AIA) enacted the most significant changes to U.S. patent law in over 60 years. It transitions the U.S. to a first-inventor-to-file system to harmonize with global practices. New post-grant review procedures allow third parties to challenge weak patents before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. The AIA also aims to improve patent quality by expanding the prior commercial use defense and prior art submissions during prosecution. Major changes under the AIA include limiting false patent marking suits and replacing interference proceedings with the new derivation proceeding.
John Callahan, partner in the Washington, D.C., law firm Sughrue Mion PLLC, provides a review of key aspects of successful practice before the PTAB – what do the statistics show and what does the PTAB require from a petitioner and patent owner.
This document proposes research on students' preferences for using computer software or hand drawing in design works. The research would use quantitative methods like experiments, tests, and questionnaires to identify students' interests and determine if there are differences between preferences for computer software versus hand drawing. It would also investigate which tools are most important for meeting real industry needs based on factors like productivity, quality of work, and time management. The literature review will examine the history and roles of hand drawing and computer-aided design in art education and industry.

The document discusses Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) and Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE), which were developed to assess clinical skills in a more objective and structured manner compared to traditional practical exams. OSCE/OSPE involve assessing students through multiple stations that evaluate specific skills like history taking, physical exams, and procedures. The document outlines the purpose, history, development, administration and advantages of OSCE/OSPE, such as being more objective and reproducible. Potential disadvantages include being time-consuming and expensive to implement. Examples of exam stations and checklists are also provided.
The document summarizes the history of education in China. It describes how the education system evolved from nobles establishing schools for their offspring, to the civil service examination system being introduced in the Tang dynasty to recruit officials based on merit rather than birth. It then outlines the key periods of education throughout Chinese dynasties, including the influence of Confucianism, the civil service examination system, and the Five Classics and Four Books that formed the basis of study.

Trial exam questions+answers logistics and supply chain management 2Khaoula Marai
The document provides answers to 20 end-of-chapter questions about supply chain management concepts from Chapter 2. Key points addressed include:
- The differences between supply chains and supply chain management, with the latter requiring overt management efforts and an enterprise perspective.
- Two models (SCOR and GSCF) of supply chain management that identify important processes and the role of logistics.
- Four key attributes of supply chain management are customer power, long-term orientation, leveraging technology, and enhanced communication.
- Contemporary supply chains need to be fast and agile to respond quickly to changing customer needs and demands.
Audit techniques are tools and methods used by auditors to collect evidence to support their opinions on a client's financial assertions. The document outlines various audit techniques including posting and extension verification, vouching, confirmations, physical examination, reconciliation, testing, analysis of financial statements, sampling techniques, compliance testing, and substantive testing.

Obtaining management representations and using audit sampling are also discussed.
Derivation proceedings replace interferences for determining priority of invention under the America Invents Act (AIA). They decide whether one inventor derived an invention from another inventor without authorization. Regulations for derivation proceedings are not finalized yet as the earliest AIA patent applications will not be filed until 2013. The Patent Trial and Appeal Board will determine whether a named inventor derived a claimed invention from another inventor's application without permission. Parties can appeal decisions to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit or settle proceedings confidentially through binding arbitration. Evidence of how an invention was disclosed or made available to other inventors may be important for derivation proceedings.
Knobbe Martens hosted a Pre-Conference Workshop on Monday, October 15, 2012, at the IN3 Medical Device Summit in San Francisco.

This document summarizes a webinar on addressing obviousness rejections under Section 103. It discusses the statutory requirements for obviousness, including the examiner's burden to establish a prima facie case of obviousness. It provides guidance on responding to obviousness rejections by challenging the teachings and combination of references. It also discusses supporting arguments with claim amendments and secondary considerations like commercial success. The webinar emphasizes engaging with examiners, who are not attorneys, and streamlining the prosecution process.
The 371 route and bypass CON route for nationalizing a PCT application in the US each have benefits and drawbacks. The 371 route treats the application as the same continuing application, but applicants must deal with amendments from the international phase and cannot add new matter. The bypass CON route allows applicants to file a continuation application with new amendments and claims, but requires paying new filing fees and resubmitting foreign priority documents. Overall, applicants must weigh factors like prosecution requirements, fees, and ability to amend claims when deciding between the two routes.
Attorney Mauricio Uribe, Michael Guiliana and Of Counsel Hironori Kubota present a Webinar focusing on strategic considerations for patent prosecution in the United States in view of the statutory requirements of Section 103.

This document provides an overview of determining novelty, inventiveness, and utility for patent applications in India. It discusses that an invention must be novel by not being anticipated by prior art, inventive by not being obvious to someone skilled in the art, and industrially applicable. It describes searching databases and classifications to examine prior art, and provides examples of assessing novelty and inventive step. The key aspects of determining if an invention is patentable in India are assessing what was previously known and if the invention involves an inventive conceptual leap.
Merger Of Inter Partes Reexamination + Reissuekblaurence
The document summarizes considerations and procedures for merging, suspending, or allowing concurrent prosecution of inter partes reexamination and reissue proceedings. It discusses factors like the stage of each proceeding, whether merger would expedite matters, and issues unique to reissue.
