Appeal No. 2003-0326
Application No. 09/050,871
INVENTION
The invention is directed to a user interface that
integrates disparate maintenance and testing applications and
systems into a single common control interface. See page 1 of
Appellants’ specification.
Conventionally, in order for service personnel to perform
trouble shooting, billing updates, and testing circuits, the
service personnel must perform these tasks on separate systems,
each of which has a different interface. Further, service
personnel need to familiarize themselves with different
interfaces and functional flow of different systems. See page 3
of Appellants’ specification.
The object of Appellants’ invention is to provide a user
interface and system that integrates disparate maintenance and
testing systems and applications into a single common control
interface. See pages 3 and 4 of Appellants’ specification.
Fig. 1A shows a user interface, GRETA which provides a single,
user-friendly, common interface to log in and perform testing,
trouble-shooting and billing updates. GRETA provides an
interface to Work Force and Administration, Operations Support
Systems and REACT 2001 systems. See pages 5 and 11 through 12 of
Appellants’ specification.
