          Appeal No. 96-3274                                                          
          Application 08/173,408                                                      

                    b.   a register located within and directly                       
                         addressable by said micro-engine; and                        
                    c.   a network interface module, having a                         
                         point-to-point interface, which is timed                     
                         asynchronously with respect to said micro-engine             
                         and which is coupled to said register through                
                         said point-to-point interface whereby said                   
                         network interface module writes into and reads               
                         from said register through said point-to-point               
                         interface.                                                   

               The examiner relies on the following prior art patent:
