          Appeal No. 2001-1605                                                        
          Application 08/735,168                                                      


          devices.  However, we fail to find that this requires a plurality           
          of partitions because physical storage space does not                       
          neccessarily dictate the makeup of a database.                              
               The selectively disabling of parallel modes is described in            
          section 5, Originating the Database Management Systems at Run               
          Time in column 13, line 28, of Bireley.  The operation of the               
          original originating database management system during run time             
          is represented by a control flow diagram in figure 7.  See column           
          13, lines 29 through 31, of Bireley.  In section 6, Originating             
          Database Management processing results at Run Time is described.            
          See column 17, line 33, of Bireley.  The operation of the                   
          original database management receiving processing results from              
          parallel tasks during run time is represented by a control flow             
          diagram in figure 8.  See column 17, lines 33 through 36.                   
          Finally, Bireley describes in section 7, Parallel Tasks at Run              
          Time.  See column 19, line 51.  The operation of the assisting              
          database management system during run time is represented by a              
          control flow diagram in figure 9.  See column 19, lines 51                  
          through 54.                                                                 
               Bireley finally addresses how to solve the buffer coherency            
          for working file data problems in section 8, Setting Bufferpool             
          Allocation Thresholds.  See column 20, line 55.  Section 9,                 
                                          11
