              Appeal No.2002-1765                                                                                       
              Application No. 09/182,091                                                                                


              levels are assigned to each memory operation, but Lewchuk clearly does not provide                        
              for a memory manager “for communicating a representation of the information set to                        
              the selected portion of said graphical user interface display” and “determining whether                   
              the information set includes information of a first type or information of a second type,”                
              as required by independent claims 1 and 9.                                                                
                     Still further, even if Barker and Lewchuk disclosed what is alleged by the                         
              examiner, the examiner has provided nothing that would have led the artisan to                            
              combine these references in any manner, let alone the manner set forth in the instant                     
              claims.                                                                                                   
                     We find nothing in the combination of Barker and Lewchuk suggesting the use of                     
              a memory manager using a first information processing mode to control display of                          
              information in the selected portion of a graphical user interface when an information set                 
              is of a first type and using a second information processing mode to control the display                  
              of the information set in the selected portion of the graphical user interface when the                   
              information set is of a second type.                                                                      
                     Motai, applied in combination with Barker and Lewchuk, for a teaching of “an                       
              image display apparatus that displays images and messages which are changed with                          
              elapse of time,” in a rejection of claim 4, does nothing to remedy the deficiencies of                    
              Barker and Lewchuk.                                                                                       



                                                           6
