What the data says.

Harry Z Wang maintains an allowance rate of 85% across 350 disposed applications in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). His record spans two art units. The allowance rate ranges from 66% to 92% across these art units. Of the 385 total applications on file, 296 have been allowed and 54 abandoned. This pooled figure reflects the examiner's historical record across both art units combined and does not isolate performance in any individual unit.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units within a technology center, producing an overall allowance rate and a range of rates per unit. The aggregate allowance rate describes past dispositions—applications already decided—and reflects historical output. Aggregate figures do not constitute predictions about pending or future applications. Individual art units may show different allowance rates; the range here spans 66% to 92%, indicating variation in the examiner's record by unit.

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 →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Harry Z Wang 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: 385 applications.

Lynch LLP is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Examiner statistics are derived from publicly available USPTO data.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
