Examiner Chongshan Chen has allowed 10 of 34 decided applications (29%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Chongshan Chen maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) across 2 art units. Over 34 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 10 and abandoned 24, yielding an allowance rate of 29%. This rate reflects decided cases only and does not include pending applications. The record spans art units 2162 and 2172 within TC 2100, aggregating outcomes across both units into a single pooled figure.
This record presents a pooled allowance rate—a single figure combining all decided applications across multiple art units. Pooled rates aggregate different subject areas and examination contexts. The 29% figure describes what occurred in the examiner's past decided cases and is not a prediction of how any individual application will be examined or disposed. Art-unit-specific records, where available separately, may vary from this aggregate.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Chongshan Chen has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 34 applications.
