Ignore that post - I see now. The patient application that you're looking for is referenced in the one you pointed to. (Note to self - engage brain before pushing send.)

Hi Chris, You have to download full patent papers to get the idea that the patent application "Logic Cell Supproting Addition of Three Binary Words" has not been approved for last 6.5 years. In the link I listed there is no the reference about the patent application. When you download the patent 7,394,287, in its page 1 there is an item named "OTHER PUBLICATION". The first paper listed under the item is the patent application "Logic Cell Supproting Addition of Three Binary Words" which applied on November 21, 2003 from where I've learned that the "Logic Cell Supproting Addition of Three Binary Words" has not been approved for last 6.5 years after I searched for the patent application name through USPTO patent website.
