Appeal No. 1998-3359
Application 08/572,347
suggestion to combine prior art references. In re Dembiczak,
175 F.3d 994, 1000-01, 50 USPQ2d 1614, 1617-19 (Fed. Cir.
1999).
We fail to find that either DiGiulio or Salazar contains
any teachings or suggestions of modifying DiGiulio’s complex
priority system to a first discrete time interval divided such
that there is sufficient time to allow completion of the
machine control algorithms. Therefore, we will not sustain
the Examiner’s rejection of claims 1 through 5.
In view of the foregoing, the Examiner’s decision is
reversed.
