              Appeal 2006-2971                                                                     
              Application 10/015,256                                                               
                    Specifically, with reference to the claimed subject matter                     
                    recited in Appellants’ independent claims 1 and 15 and illustrated in          
                    the flowchart of Figure 2 (with reference to the components in Figure          
                    1), Appellants’ invention provides a method for tracking custom                
                    computer application development profiles in a data processing                 
                    system (and a program storage device readable by machine, tangibly             
                    embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to               
                    perform a method for tracking custom computer application                      
                    development profiles in a data processing system), wherein the                 
                    method comprises creating the profiles with a first database tool 24           
                    (described on page 8, lines 8-19 of the specification as originally            
                    filed); gathering requirements of the profiles with a second database          
                    tool 26 (described on page 8, lines 8-19 of the specification as               
                    originally filed); tracking modifications of the profiles with a third         
                    database tool 28 (described on page 8, lines 8-19 of the specification         
                    as originally filed); allowing security and authorization users access to      
                    the profiles (via a Security and Authorization Team Interface 25 of            
                    Figure 1 and described on page 8, lines 8-19 of the specification as           
                    originally filed); and determining whether breaches in security of the         
                    data processing system 20 has occurred in each phase of development            
                    of a computer application program via the Security and Authorization           
                    Profile Change Request Database 28 of Figure 1 and described on                
                    page 11, lines 19-23 of the specification as originally filed.                 
                (Brief, page 3)                                                                    
                    Claim 1 is representative of the claimed invention and is reproduced           
              as follows:                                                                          

                    1. A method for tracking custom computer application development               
                    profiles in a data processing system, said method comprising:                  
                          creating said profiles with a first database tool;                       
                          gathering requirements of said profiles with a second database           
                          tool;                                                                    
                          tracking modifications of said profiles with a third database            
                          tool;                                                                    

                                                2
