Follow this link to register for this week's PTAB's INVENTOR HOUR (Episode 30): https://lnkd.in/eiY63WGD In this episode (it's this Thursday at Noon (ET)) you'll hear about this Summer's Invention-Con event, learn key differences between an RCE vs. ex parte Appeal prosecution strategy, and review some DOs and DON'Ts in ex parte Appeal practice from Judges' perspectives. And, there'll also be some interesting stuff on food-related patents! See you there (I'm on the panel, so I mean it). Hope your computer is up and running!

My #CompSci lecturers often dropped the names of inventors. But only if they were men. We talked about Gordon Moore, obviously Turing 🏳️🌈 was mentioned, about Don Knuth, about Chomsky etc. But when we discussed the #ARM architecture, we never talked about the inventor *Sophie Wilson*. We also never talked about *Mary Ann Horton*, despite her work on `vi` and `terminfo` -- but of course we mentioned Bill Joy. We discussed the Spanning Tree Protocol, but not its inventor *Radia Perlman*. We have the whole field of #SoftwareEngineering, but who coined the term? *Margaret Hamilton*. We mentioned the ENIAC and v. Neumann, but failed to talk about *Adele Goldstine*. We discussed the origins of #OOP and #Smalltalk but ignored *Adele Goldberg*.  We programmed in #Assembly but never talked about the woman who wrote the first #Assembler, *Kathleen Booth*. And don't get me started on #Safari and our sweet @lisamelton <3  Or any of the (incomplete list) of *Ida Rhodes, Carol Shaw, Shafi Goldwasser, Edith Clarke, Annie Easley, Joyce Little*, ... And today?  Let's talk about our favorite trans woman CPU designer, Lynn Conway." https://lnkd.in/daS7jrpx

In 1968, something incredible happened at a conference in San Francisco. Douglas Engelbart stepped onto the stage to unveil his invention: the computer mouse. This simple wooden device, with its two metal wheels, amazed the audience as Engelbart demonstrated how it could change the way people interacted with computers. Before the mouse, computers were complicated and mostly used by experts. Engelbart's invention made technology more accessible, allowing anyone to navigate digital environments with ease. This moment marked a significant shift, not just for technology, but for how we connect with information. Today, the mouse has evolved into a sleek, comfortable tool, but its origin story is a reminder of innovation's power. Engelbart's vision lives on in every click and scroll we make. It prompts us to think about how different our digital world would be without that first leap into the unknown. The journey of technology is fueled by curiosity and creativity, and it continues to shape our lives in exciting ways. #techhistory #innovation #onlinelearning #edtech #digitaleducation #techgadgets #computermouse #historyoftech #learningtools #futureofeducation #woodworking #techfacts #innovationintech #educationmatters #techdevelopment #curiosity

It is an honor that I had a chance to work with Alice Parker at the University of Southern California. She is an inspiration. Her work in the areas of high level synthesis, system level synthesis, and neuromorphic circuits are well known. I am sharing a paper which we co-authored with Dr Dong-Hyun Heo #womeninengineering

Special congrats to my colleague, Huan Liu, who has received a patent for his efforts on "Systems and Methods for Sequential Event Prediction with Noise-Contrastive Estimation for Marked Temporal Point Processes." Huan is truly an innovator and we are lucky to have him in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence. For a bit more about his patented work, see here: https://lnkd.in/gp_GuWZy

The First Computer Mouse Patent: The computer mouse was patented in 1970 by Douglas Engelbart. The patent described it as an "X-Y Position Indicator for a Display System." Engelbart’s invention significantly changed how users interacted with computers, moving away from keyboard-only input. #factsyoudidntknow Follow to know what you Don't know #softwaresolutionscompany#ITknowledge#KnowledgeIsPower#facts
