Examiner Ilwoo Park has allowed 506 of 736 decided applications (69%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Examiner Ilwoo Park maintains a public record across 2 art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of 736 disposed applications, 506 were allowed, yielding an overall allowance rate of 69%. The allowance rate across Park's art units ranges from 61% to 73%, reflecting variation in the composition and outcomes of applications handled within each art unit. This pooled figure represents the examiner's aggregate record and does not predict any individual application's outcome.
A pooled record aggregates an examiner's performance across multiple art units into a single overall allowance rate. This figure describes historical outcomes—the share of decided applications that were allowed—and reflects the mix of applications, subject matter, and examiner decisions across all assigned art units. The pooled rate is not a prediction for any specific application and does not isolate the effect of any single factor or practice.
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 Ilwoo Park 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: 736 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.
