Patents, Reply Examiner, Searches, Infringement

I have an engineering degree and a law degree. I did a course in intellectual property law. I have 20 years of experience in patents which includes patent litigation. I draft provisional as well as non provisional patent specifications for inventions. This includes design patents. I register trademarks. I do opinions on the infringement and obviousness of patents. I assist to respond to office actions and objections raised by the patent examiner during the patenting process. I do prior art patent searches. I also do freedom to operate searches.

The Hard Disk Drive

Ezine Articles
The hard disk drive is the place where all your data and programs are stored. It is the most important permanent storage place in your computer. It is the place where your programs and data are kept when your computer is turned off. It also plays a very important role in the overall performance of your computer. See:http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Hard-Disk-Drive&id=3269277

Computer Graphics: The Graphics Pipeline

Ezine Articles
In 3D computer graphics the terms graphics pipeline or rendering pipeline refers to the method of rasterization rendering. On the input side of the pipeline is fed a three-dimensional representation of a scene for instance a battle scene of a computer game. This three-dimensional input is then processed so that the output is a 2D raster image of the three-dimensional input. See: http://ezinearticles.com/?Computer-Graphics---The-Graphics-Pipeline&id=3692113

Computer Graphics: Vertex Processing

Ezine Articles
It has to do with the display of an object like a person, a car or weapon in for instance a computer game. Any object in 3D space can be broken down into triangles. Each triangle can be represented by three vertices (vertices is the plural of vertex). Vertex processing is the process whereby each vertex of an object is transformed from 3D in virtual space to an image on a 2D coordinate system, like a computer screen. See: http://ezinearticles.com/?Computer-Graphics---Vertex-Processing&id=3888963
