the examiner points to the abstract of Sarukkai. The examiner
identifies Figure 3, the abstract and column 5, lines 46-56,

addition of line 57, of Sarukkai for the teaching of the
claimed “at least one Java application operable to dynamically
specify the grammar, to receive the result and to perform an
action based on the result.” Finally, the examiner points to
the appendices of Sarukkai and to column 6, lines 54-67, and
column 7, lines 1-9, as the claimed “application program
interface...”
