          Appeal No. 96-2237                                                          
          Application 08/113,509                                                      



          address transfer or a single address request for a single                   
          instruction word or a single data word is what is implemented               
          in Figure 6 and for a corresponding data access as well.  Only              
          a single address is sought from which other addresses may be                
          sequentially indexed in some manner as shown in Figure 6.                   
          Therefore, as to the ceasing operations recited, it is thus                 
          apparent that the address for the instruction in Figure 6 is                
          ceased before accessibility begins for a corresponding data                 
          access operation and vice versa.  Appellant's arguments in the              
          reply brief as to claim 20 do not persuade us otherwise.                    
                    In view of the foregoing, the decision of the exam-               
          iner rejecting claims 14 through 26 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is                
          affirmed                                                                    


          only as to claim 20.  Therefore, the decision of the examiner               
          is affirmed-in-part.                                                        
                    No time period for taking any subsequent action in                
          con- nection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR §                
          1.136(a).                                                                   
                                  AFFIRMED-IN-PART                                    

                                          10
