Rogaway's OCB is patent-pending -- see
http://www.cs.ucdavis.edu/~rogaway/ocb/ocb-back.htm#patent:phil
Gligor and Donescu's NIST submission said that they had filed patent
applications, too: http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/modes/workshop1/presentations/slides-gligor.pdf
And http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/modes/workshop1/workshop-report.pdf
indicates that IBM has filed for patent applications on IAPM.
