          Appeal No. 95-4730                                                          
          Application No. 08/061,495                                                  

               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of               
          claims 1 through 20, constituting all the claims in the                     
          application.                                                                
               The invention is directed to a system for and method of                
          handwriting recognition.  More particularly, both dynamic and               
          static (the static being obtained by processing the dynamic)                
          handwriting information are obtained and these two types of                 
          information are employed to obtain recognition results which                
          are then merged from both to obtain a most probable recognized              
          character.                                                                  
               Representative independent claim 1 is reproduced as                    
          follows:                                                                    
               1. A handwriting recognition system, comprising:                       
               handwriting transducer means, responsive to a handwriting              
          input from a user, for outputting corresponding time ordered                
          stroke information;                                                         
               first means, having an input coupled to an output of said              
          handwriting transducer means, for determining a first list                  
          comprised of at least one probable character that the                       
          corresponding time ordered stroke information is intended to                
          represent;                                                                  
               means, having an input coupled to said output of said                  
          handwriting transducer means, for converting the corresponding              
          time ordered stroke information to static stroke information;               
               second means, having an input coupled to an output of                  
          said converting means, for determining at least one second                  
                                          2
