Examiner Hau Hai Hoang has allowed 480 of 592 decided applications (81%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Hau Hai Hoang maintains a public record across 3 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 592 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 480, yielding an 81% allowance rate. The allowance rate ranges from 78% to 100% across the art units in the examiner's portfolio. This pooled figure reflects outcomes across multiple art-unit assignments and does not represent a prediction for any particular application.
This pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units, presenting an overall allowance rate calculated from all decided applications across the examiner's assignments in TC 2100. The aggregate figure describes historical outcomes and cannot forecast the result of any specific application. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, may show variation. Pooled statistics are descriptive of past work, not predictive tools.
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. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Hau Hai Hoang 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: 630 applications.

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.
