We agree with Appellants that Melican is not analogous art. The Examiner’s opposing view apparently is based on the proposition that the inventions of Melican and claim 1 are in the same field of endeavor because they are both directed to composites. However, such a proposition so broadly characterizes the field of Appellants’ endeavor as to render meaningless this aspect of the test for non-analogous art. Here, the Examiner has failed to “correctly set the field of the invention by consulting the structure and function of the claimed invention as perceived by one of ordinary skill in the art.” In re Bigio, 381 F.3d 1320, 1326 (Fed. Cir. 2004).

We note, "[d]uring prosecution . . . the PTO gives claims their 'broadest reasonable interpretation.'" In re Bigio, 381 F.3d 1320, 1324 (Fed. Cir. 2004) (quoting In re Hyatt, 211 F.3d 1367, 1372 (Fed. Cir. 2000)). We find the broadest reasonable interpretation of common claim element "hardware" does not exclude such hardware disclosed in Fig. 8 of the cited reference, nor does the broadest reasonable interpretation of "virtualization layer" preclude the inclusion of hardware device drivers in such a layer.

Although we apply a somewhat different reasoning than that provided by the Examiner, where, as here, the limitations at issue are found in a single reference and the thrust of the obviousness reasoning remains the same, the Board may rely on a single reference to affirm a multiple reference rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) without designating it a new ground of rejection. Reliance upon fewer references in affirming a rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 103 does not normally constitute a new ground of rejection. See In re Kronig, 539 F.2d 1300, 1303 (CCPA 1976); In re Boyer, 363 F.2d 455, 458 n.2 (CCPA 1966); In re Bush, 296 F.2d 491, 496 (CCPA 1961); see also Hyatt v. Doll, 576 F.3d 1246, 1276 (Fed. Cir. 2009) (“The Board cannot be said to have presented a new ground of rejection simply by elaborating on the examiner’s rejection or by using different words.”).
