`
`' REMARKS
`
`Claims 1-7, 9, 10, 14-19, and 37 were presented for examination. a final office action
`mailed November 2, 2004, Examiner objected to the specification, and rej 'ected claims 1-7, 9, 10,
`
`14-1 9, and 37 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e). On January 29, 2004, Examiner granted a telephone
`interview with Applicant's attorney.
`'
`
`In response, the specification is amended. Claims 1, 10 and 37 are'_ amended. Claims 38
`and 39 are added without introducing any new matter. Claims 9 and 14 aiie cancelled. Applicant
`
`thanks Examiner for examination and the subsequent interview, and now requests
`
`reconsideration of claims 1-7, 10, 15-19, and 37-39 in light of the following remarlcs.
`
`I.
`
`Summary of the Interview
`
`'
`
`During the interview, Applicant argued that Chiussi fails to disclose containers
`
`configured for interactions with other containers as recited in independenticlaim l as an example.
`
`Furthermore, Applicant argued that Chiussi fails to disclose an active time register, a passive
`
`time register andfor a neutral time register as disclosed in dependent claim 9. While failing to
`reach ag1'eement with respect to claim 1, Examiner agreed to reconsider claim 9 and other claims
`
`based on a formal communication.
`
`11.
`
`Objection to the Specification
`
`I
`
`The specification was obj ccted to because, according to the final action, the application
`
`did not contain an abstract of the disclosure. Applicant has amended the specification to include
`
`a new abstract. Applicant has also included the abstract :1 separate sheet. Therefore, Applicant
`
`respectfully submits that the specification should no longer be obj eoted to.

`
`Rejections under § 102(2)
`
`.
`
`‘
`
`Claims 1-7, 9, 10, 14-19, and 3'? were rejected under § 102(e) as being anticipated by
`U.S. Patent No. 6,075,791 issued to Chiussi et al. ("Chiussi”). Applicant rcspectfirlly traverses
`
`the rejections as follows.
`
`A.
`
`Claim 1
`
`Claim 1 has been amended to include the limitations of claim 9, and is directed to an
`apparatus including a plurality ofcontainers. Claim 1 further recites that each container
`comprises an active time register, a passive time register, and a neutral time register. Since the
`
`limitations are identical to a previously submitted claim, Applicant submits that no further
`searching is necessary.
`A
`
`Chiussi discloses a server 100 which services a plurality of q11et1e:s'having guaranteed
`data transfer rates and data transfer delays. (Abstract). A queue containsuit connection identifier
`
`register 30-i, and a time stamp register 50—i. (col. 4, in. 67-col. 5, In. 5). ‘Elie server 100
`
`generates a new timestamp when a new packet reaches the head of a queue. (Col. 5, 11. 20-22)
`
`However. Chiussi does not teach or suggest limitations recited in claim 1. Specifically,
`
`while the “active time register” of claim 1 identifies “times at which the container will ac ” (i.e.,
`
`“upon other containers, processes, systems, or gateways"), the queue of Chiussi merely logs a
`
`time that a new packet reached the head ofqueue. Similarly, the “passive time register” ofclaim
`
`1 identifies “times at which the container can be acted upon”, and the “neutral time register”
`
`identifies "times at which the container may interact,” neither of which are disclosed by Chiussi.
`
`Moreover, while claim 1 recites containers having a “second register. ..governing interactions
`with other containers," the queues of Chiussi are unable to interact with other queues because
`
`they have no awaress of other queues. Nor does Chiussi disclose any specific time parameters
`
`for such interaction. Thtzs, Chiussi fails to disclose the active time register, the passive time
`
`register, the neutral time register, or the second register as recited in c1airn"1.
`
`Because Chiussi does not disclose every limitation of claim 1. Applicant respectfully
`
`submits that claim 1 is patentable over Chiussi.

`
`Claim 3?
`
`Attorney's Illocket No.1 17776-OOZUSI
`
`Claim 3? has been amended to include the limitations of claim 14.: and is directed to an
`
`apparatus including a plurality of containers. Claim 3'? fiirther recites that each contairier
`
`comprises an active space register, a passive space register. and a neutral" space register. Since
`
`the limitations are identical to a previously submitted claim, Applicant submits that no ihrther
`
`searching is necessary.
`Examiner relies on the same disclosure for claim 37 as discussed above with respect to
`
`claim 1.
`
`However, Chiussi does not teach or suggest limitations recited in claim 37. Specifically,
`
`the cited portions of Chiussi, in disclosing merely a connection identification register and a
`
`timestamp register, do not disclose a " second register designating space and governing
`
`‘
`
`interactions of the container with other containers" as recited in claim 37. 'rSi.mi1ariy, Chiussi
`
`does not specifically disclose an “active space register" to identify a “space in which the
`
`container will act upon, a "passive space register” to identify a “space in which the container can
`
`be acted upon," not the “neutral space register” to identify a “space in which the container may
`
`intcract." Also, while claim 37 recites a “second rcgisten. governing interactions of the
`
`container with other containers," the queues of Chiussi are unable to interact with other queues
`
`as discussed. Thus, Chiussi fails to disclose the active space register, the space time register, the
`
`neutral space register, or the second register as recited in claim 37.
`
`Because Chiussi does not disclose every limitation ofclaim 3?, , Applicant respectfitlly
`
`submits that claim 3'7 is patcntahlc over Chiussi.
`
`C.
`
`Claim 38
`
`'
`
`New claim 38 includes the limitations ofpreviously presented claims 1 and 10. and is
`directed to an apparatus including a plurality of containers. Claim 33 fiirttier recites that each
`container comprises at least one acquire register. Because the limitations are identical to a
`
`previously submitted claim, Applicant submits that no fmthcr searching is lnecessary.
`
`During the course ofthe interview, Examiner indicated that Chiucsi discloses a server
`
`100 that increments the content of register 1 15, that increments the content of queue length

`
`ofregister 110, and that adds the product ofthe contents oftirnestamp register 50-i and rate
`
`register 40-i to the content of register 123. (Col. 8, 11. 3-24).
`
`However, Chiussi does not teach or suggest limitations recited in claim 38 Specifically,
`the containers of claim 38 include an “acquire register” that can “controi[] whether the container
`adds a register from other containers or adds a container from other containers.” Thus. the
`container of claim 38 can acquire the register itself from another
`rather than merely
`
`_,rr_|gthemat:ica.Ilx fitting (or logically adding) the contents of two registers together as disclosed in
`Chiussi. Moreover, whereas the container ofclaim 38 can condition “whether“ a register or
`
`container is added to the container the queues of Chiussi present no conditions since the
`centrally-controlled queues are unaware that other queues exist . Nor does the server of Chiussi
`assist in the acquisition of a register of one queue by another queue. As such, the queues of
`
`Chiussi are not able add registers directly fiorn other queues. Nor are the queues able to add
`
`another queue. Moreover, the purpose of Chiussi, for sharing communication access between
`
`queues as designated by the server, would be foreclosed by adding one queue to another queue.
`
`_
`Thus, Chiussi fails to disclose the acquire register as recited in claim 38.
`Because Chiussi does not disclose every limitation of claim 38, Apialicant respectfully
`
`submits that claim 38 is patentable over Chiussi.

`ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
`
`An appamtus for transmitting, receiving and manipulating informaition on a computer
`system, the apparatus including a plurality of containers, each container being a logically defined
`
`data. enclosure and comprising an information element, a plurality ofregistcrs. and a gateway.
`The plurality ofregistews, form part ofthe container, and include a first register for storing a
`unique container identification value; a second register having a represemitilfion designating time
`and governing interactions ofthe container with other containers, systems ior processes according
`
`to utility of informa.t:ion in the information element relative to an external-to~the-apparatus event
`
`time; an active time register for identifying times at which the container will act upon other
`
`containers, processes, systems or gateways; a passive time register for identifying times at which
`
`the container can be acted upon by other containers, processes, systems or-gateways; and a
`
`neutral time register for ideluifying times at which the container may interact with other
`
`containers, processes, systems or gateways. Additional registers designate space for container
`
`interactions.
