Appeal No. 1997-3911
Application 08/368,758
See Rosenberg, Dictionary of Computers, Information Processing
& Telecommunications 292, which defines "initial program
loader" to mean "the utility routine that loads the initial
part of a computer program, such as an operating system or
other computer program, so that the computer program can then
proceed under its own control." Because Yamaguchi's PROM 6 is
non-volatile, the correction data stored therein need not be
and is not re-entered during subsequent initializations of the
either the operating system or a program to be run by the
micro-controller.
