          brief, Appellants only argue that Hester fails to disclose the              
          following limitations recited in claim 55:                                  
                    an on-chip condition sensor . . . including                       
                    . . . means responsive to the recognition

                    electronic processor under test] for                              
                    applying a control input to said electronic                       
                    processor during said real time operation                         
                    thereof.                                                          
          Appellants do not argue in their briefs that the above claim                
          language should be interpreted any more narrowly than its
