ABSTRACT:
A new memory tuple is described that creates both a handle as well as a reference to an item within the handle. The reference is created using an offset value that defines the physical offset of the data within the memory block. Thereafter, if references are passed in terms of their offset value, this value will be the same in any copy of the handle regardless of the machine. In a distributed computing environment, equivalence between handles is established in a single transaction between two communicating machines. Thereafter, the two machines can communicate about specific handle contents simply by using offsets.
