Appeal 2006-2504
Application 09/422,998
Appellants argue that claim 14 is patentable over the prior art of record for
the same reasons that independent claim 13 is allegedly patentable.
Accordingly, we will sustain the Examiner’s rejection of claim 14 as being
unpatentable over Wookey in view of Sybase for the same reasons discussed
supra with respect to independent claim 13, and also for the same reasons
discussed supra with respect to independent claim 7.
DECISION
In summary, we have sustained the Examiner’s rejection of all claims
on appeal. Therefore, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1-5, 7-
14, 16-18, and 20-22 is affirmed.
In the event prosecution is reopened in this application, we direct the
Examiner’s attention to U.S. Pat. 5,809,238 to Greenblatt. Greenblatt
discloses a system directed to data processing techniques for collecting and
managing data such as techniques for monitoring the performance of
computer networks, and in particular to database techniques, such as
relational databases including those using SQL engines, for collecting and
managing data in a network. In particular, Greenblatt discloses monitoring
and comparing performance data from computers in a network.
