Technology Gain-of-Function Curve

The Technology Gain-of-Function (Tech GoF) Curve: A Proven Model for Billion-Dollar IP Valuation

Developed by John B. Minor during the 3G-4G wireless infrastructure buildout, discovery of the Technology Gain-of-Function (Tech GoF) Curve has driven multi-billion-dollar cost savings estimates for major U.S. Mobile Network Operators including AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint. This proprietary model quantifies infrastructure and network efficiencies resulting from app-based and embedded technology functions — making it a critical tool in high-stakes patent litigation, damages estimation, and settlement valuation.

The Tech GoF Model has been successfully applied in landmark patent infringement cases, resulting in substantial verdicts and settlements. It is especially effective in matters involving:
 • iOS and Android application intellectual property
 • Infringement actions against Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs)
• Valuation of embedded telecom, backhaul, or optical network efficiencies

As a recognized expert in Forensic Cell Site Analysis, Mobile Network Evidence, and Communications Technology, John Minor brings a strategic, standards-driven approach to intellectual property disputes. His work integrates:
• Optical Transport and Fiber Network Forensics
• Internet and Carrier-Grade Backhaul Network Valuation
• App-Based Efficiency Modeling within Network Infrastructure
• IEEE Senior Life Voting Member
• ASTM International Voting Member Forensic Science (E30 Committee)
• IETF Internet Standards Voting Member
• IPNSIG (InterPlanetary Network Special Interest Group) Member
