    243 F. App'x 603 (Fed. Cir. 2007)   Cited 18 times
    Holding the step of comparing an offer and a demand cannot occur until the step of receiving the offer and demand but rejecting the argument that the step of comparing offers and demands cannot begin until all offers and demands have been received. The court stated "the comparison and testing steps logically cannot begin until an offer and a demand are received. But that does not mean that the 'receiving' steps must be completed before the comparison and testing steps begin. To the contrary, the step of calculating the differences between demands and offers can occur concurrently with the receipt of multiple demands and offers. As each new pair of bids is received, the bids are compared."
