The relevant inquiry under 35 U.S.C. 112(2), in the examination context "is to determine whether the claims do, in fact, set out and circumscribe a particular area with a reasonable degree of precision and particularity." In re Moore, 439 F.2d 1232, 1235 (CCPA 1971) (emphasis added).  "[T]he definiteness of the language employed must be analyzed - not in a vacuum, but always in light of the teachings of the prior art and of the particular application disclosure as it would be interpreted by one possessing the ordinary level of skill in the pretinent art." Id.
