                Application No. 09/09/318,186                                                                  
                and not a parallel library, as Welch discloses and is relied on for its use of a               
                parallel library.                                                                              
                      In view of above, the rejections of claims 60-65, 67, 69, 71, 74 and 80                  
                over Welch, Liu and Weingarten are affirmed.  The rejections of claims 60 and 77               
                under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Welch, Liu, and                            
                Weingarten, in view of Lam, and claims 60-65, 67-69, 71 and 74 under 35 U.S.C.                 
                § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Welch, Liu, and Weingarten in view of                      
                Pirkle, also fall with claim 60 based upon the primary combination of references.              


                                                CONCLUSION

                103(a) for obviousness over Welch in view of Liu and further in view of                        
                Weingarten is affirmed.                                                                        
                      The rejections of claims 60 and 77 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being                     
                unpatentable over Welch, Liu, and Weingarten, in view of Lam, and claims 60-65,                
                67-69, 71 and 74 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Welch,                    
                Liu, and Weingarten in view of Pirkle, also fall with claim 60 based upon the                  
                primary combination of references and are affirmed.
