Appeal No. 1996-0347
Application No. 08/166,609
U.S.C. 102(b) based on Branson since independent claims 7 and
19 also require the adjustment of clocking frequency based on
a counted number of events indicative of the activity level of
the computer system during a preset period [claim 7] or of the
counted number of main memory cycles [claim 19]. The
rejection of dependent claims 11 and 12 under 35 U.S.C. 103
based on Branson and Intel will fall with the rejection under
35 U.S.C. 102(b) since Intel does not provide for the
deficiencies of Branson.
We have not sustained the rejection of claims 7 through
10 and 19 through 22 under 35 U.S.C. 102(b) or the rejections
of claims 1 through 22 under 35 U.S.C. 103.
