	Pei-Yuan Wei - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pei-Yuan Wei (魏培源, pinyin: Wèi Péiyuán) is a former undergraduate student at the University of California, Berkeley who created ViolaWWW, one of the first graphical web browsers.
		Pei-Yuan Wei is at the center of a controversy over patents relating to embedded objects in a web browser.
		At question is whether his browser, ViolaWWW, had the capability to launch embedded objects, prior to the date a patent was filed by Michael F. Doyle of Eolas, and the University of California.

	Viola Overview
		A significant viola application, such as the ViolaWWW for example, consists of about 400 objects-- around 150 core objects that make up the WWW browser, and about 250 supporting objects that are specific to WWW data types such as HTML, etc.
		The ``ViolaWWW'' application is the first X Windows based World Wide Web hypertext browser made available to the WWW community (mid 1992).
		Since then, work on ViolaWWW has been on the next generation HTML (HTML 3.0, while the standard is still evolving).

		With this he constructed a browser named ViolaWWW which ran in the X Windows system (Unix).
		In writing solely for Unix he missed out on the explosive growth which took place in Windows-based installations, and it was left to others to achieve the fame that he might have had.

		The appeals court found that the initial trial court was invalid because it did not allow the jury to hear Microsoft's assertion that Eolas' patent for embedding objects in Web pages was invalid because other developers had invented similar technology before Eolas submitted its patent application.
		The main such example is the ViolaWWW Browser created by Pei-yuan Wei at the University of California at Berkeley.
		Eolas’s owner and former University of California at San Francisco employee Mike Doyle expressed confidence that the court would uphold the validity of his patent.

	PCWorld.com - Microsoft to Judges: Eolas Didn't Invent Patented Tech
		An appeals court should throw out a half-billion-dollar patent infringement judgment against Microsoft because a lower court failed to recognize that the Web browsing patent was based on a technology that was not invented by the company awarded the money, a Microsoft lawyer argued Thursday.
		Microsoft's attorney, Constantine Trela Jr., told a panel of judges at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., that Eolas Technologies' patent on functionality that allows browsers to recognize and run embedded applications on Web pages was demonstrated by ViolaWWW browser developer "Perry" Pei-Yuan Wei in May 1993.
		That was more than five years before the Eolas patent was granted, Trela said.

		Pei Wei, student at Stanford, then wrote "ViolaWWW" for unix; some students at Helsinki University of Technology wrote "Erwise" for unix; and Tony Johnson of SLAC wrote "Midas" for unix.
		Pei Wei has passed though history unnoticed among others whose work is not mentioned in the histories, even though there was a year or so when Viola was the best way to browse the web, was the engine driving the installation of new servers, and the recommended browser at CERN for example.
		As I understand it, Marc Andreessen at NCSA was shown ViolaWWW by a colleague (David Thompson?) at NCSA.

		However, Erwise remained a well-used browser in the UNIX X-Windows system for a number of years (Berners-Lee & Fischetti, 1999).
		Also in 1992, Pei Wei, a student at U.C. Berkeley, wrote ViolaWWW, an advanced graphical browser that "set an early standard...[having] many of the attributes that would come out several years later in the much-hyped program HotJava" (Berners-Lee, 1999, p.56).
		ViolaWWW had some major drawbacks: it was complicated to install and only worked on UNIX machines; however it was influential in expanding the audience for the web further into the UNIX and programming communities (Berners-Lee & Fischetti, 1999).

		Graduate student Marc Andreessen, who led a team of graduate students including Eric Bina, developed a free graphical web browser for UNIX which supported sound, graphics, and video clips by using some of Tim Berners-Lee’s work on the World Wide Web hypertext protocol and the ViolaWWW browser developed by Pei Wei of UC Berkeley.
		In August of 1993, the team of programmers released Mosaic for both Windows and Macintosh operating systems, marking the first time that an easy to use, point-and-click graphical browser was available on the three most popular operating systems of the time.
