          Appeal No. 97-1227                                                          
          Application 08/163,416                                                      

          remaining display data is stored at the host site until the                 
          user requests display of the information at the remote site                 
          (Supp. Answer at 5).  We have reviewed the above-noted                      
          portions of Eagen cited by the examiner and can find no                     
          reasonable basis for the examiner’s findings.  In Eagen, the                
          desired window panel contents is the entirety of the desired                
          window display and is transmitted from the host to the local                
          processor.  There is no indication that after the transmission              
          the host stores in the host’s memory any of the display data                
          which has been transmitted to the local processor.                          
               Furthermore, with regard to Eagen, it appears that the                 
          examiner has regarded the "underlying panel data" replaced by               
          a desired window display as the remaining data.  With regard                
          to the "remaining display data," the examiner cited (Supp.                  
          Answer at 4) to column 11, lines 7-9 of Eagen, which states:                
          "Finally, underlying panel data does not need to be                         
          transmitted from the host processor to the DWS when a window                
          is removed, which also significantly reduces communications                 
          time required to support remote workstations."  It is an                    
          incorrect assumption from the quoted portion of Eagen that the              
          host stores the underlying panel data.  A reading from column               

                                          6
