Appeal No. 1998-2596
Application 08/522,222
does discard
these instructions, it also cannot meet the recitations of
claim 1. Thus, neither victim cache 52 nor prefetch buffer 62
can meet the limitations set forth in claim 1.
The examiner’s incorrect findings with respect to the
teachings of Jouppi result in the examiner having failed to
establish a prima facie case of the obviousness of claim 1.
Therefore, we do not sustain the rejection of claim 1 or of
claims 2-5 which depend therefrom. Since the examiner’s
rejection of all the remaining claims relies on the same
incorrect interpretation of Jouppi, we also do not sustain the
rejection of claims 6-27 for reasons discussed above and for
the additional reasons set forth in appellants’ main brief
with respect to these claims.
