Examiner Kyung H Shin has allowed 37 of 92 decided applications (40%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Kyung H Shin maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security), spanning a single art unit. Across 92 disposed applications, 37 were allowed and 55 were abandoned, yielding an allowance rate of 40% over the decided count. This figure represents the examiner's pooled record and reflects outcomes across all applications in the art unit(s) covered. The record encompasses applications that have reached final disposition; pending applications are excluded from this calculation.
This profile aggregates outcomes across all art units under the examiner's jurisdiction. The allowance rate of 40% describes historical dispositions and is not a prediction for any specific application. Pooled figures mask variation across individual art units and technology areas. Understanding an aggregate rate requires awareness that it combines multiple bodies of work. Individual application outcomes depend on claim scope, prior art, and other case-specific factors independent of historical aggregate rates.
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 Kyung H Shin 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: 92 applications.
