The order of inventors on the WARF patent that Apple infringed: the professor was last


Forbes discussed the UW patent involved in the litigation loss by Apple to WARF:


"We believed our technology was ahead of its time," said UW research Professor Gurindar Sohi in a statement released by the university. "Almost two decades ago we tried to anticipate how computers would need to operate today. Our team invested the equivalent of more than 11 years of work to solve this problem."

The foundation registered the patent in 1998 on behalf of Sohi and three graduate students (Andreas Moshovos, Scott Breach, Terani Vijaykumar), the group says.

The listed inventors on the WARF patent:
