The following references are relied upon by the examiner:
IBM Technical Disclosure Bulletin, vol. 28, No. 12 pp. 5573-74
(May 1986)(hereinafter IBM).
D.D. Keefe (Keefe), "Hierarchical control programs for systems
evaluation", 2 IBM Systems Journal 123-133 (1968).
Claims 15 and 30 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b)
as being anticipated by Keefe. These claims also stand
rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103. As evidence of obviousness,
the examiner relies upon IBM alone.
Rather than repeat the positions of the appellants and
the examiner, reference is made to the briefs and the answer
for the respective details thereof.
