What the data says.

Victor W Wang maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 95 disposed applications, the examiner allowed 40 and saw 55 abandoned, for an allowance rate of 42% over the decided pool. The record spans a single art unit. This allowance rate reflects outcomes on applications that reached final disposition—pending cases are excluded from the calculation. The figures present a historical summary of decided cases and do not indicate what will occur in any future application.

// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all dispositions across one art unit in TC 2100. The allowance rate of 42% describes the share of decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) that received allowance; it is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Pooled figures mask variation within art units and do not forecast prosecution results. They serve as a reference point for understanding the examiner's past-case distribution only.

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

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: 95 applications.

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.
