          Appeal No. 1997-1194                                                        
          Application No. 08/084,668                                                  


          this deficiency, the Examiner turns to Hokari which is                      
          directed to the selection of a least cost route for data                    
          transfer in a ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network)                    
          network using stored least cost routing table information.  In              
          the Examiner’s line of reasoning (Answer, page 3, which                     
          references a previous Office action mailed April 12, 1995,                  
          paper no. 5), the skilled artisan would have found it obvious               
          to incorporate a least cost router in the system of Shinohara               
          in order to provide rapid and economic route selection for the              
          transfer of data packets in view of the teachings of Hokari.
