Feldman 2010, van Holten, and Vierboom are post filing date art. However, references that are published “after the filing date of appellant’s application . . . are not, therefore, evidence of subject matter known to ‘any person skilled in the art’ as required by 35 U.S.C. § 112, paragraph 1.” In re Gunn, 537 F.2d 1123, 1128 (CCPA 1976).

 If we were to adopt the Appellant’s position, it appears that claim 1 and claim 213 would be coterminous in scope. See Seachange Int'l, Inc. v. C-COR, Inc., 413 F.3d 1361, 1369 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (“[T]here is still a presumption that two independent claims have different scope when different words or phrases are used in those claims.”).
