          Application No. 09/562,641                                 Page 9           

               Although Rogers refers to the DIS capsule gathering data,              
          such as table definitions (col. 12, lines 13-17), we agree with             
          appellants that Rogers does not teach retrieving definition                 
          information for run-time operation of a client device.  Nor does            
          Rogers teach that the definition information, include a format              
          specification, for runtime operation on a client device.                    
          Although Rogers discloses (col. 9, line 66 through col. 10, line            
          2) that figure 4 is a result screen that is returned to the                 
          client after the requested service is provided by the computer              
          network in accordance with the invention formatted according to             
          the specifications of a DIS capsule, this does not refer to a               
          format specification that is part of definition information that            
          is for run-time operation on the client-side component.  Rather,            
          the formatted specification refers to the specifications of a DIS           
          capsule on the server-side component.                                       
               In addition, although Rogers refers to run code (col. 14,              
          lines 44-49) Rogers discloses:                                              
               The Web browser 71 can make a request to the Web Server                
               72 for a report through the use of HTML.  The HTML                     
               document refers to our control program agent 73, which                 
               may be implemented with the C language or other                        
               language which can provide run code for the particular                 
               Web server which is employed.
