- | Our approach propose that remote references will be tangible to the developer who will determine the conditions under which a reference is meaningful to the application in order to help the collector to ascertain if the remote object they point to can be reclaimed. | + | Since devices may not be able to communicate at some point in time, when a remote reference is first allocated both parties in the interaction will establish a contract with the condition under which the reference is useful to the application. Therefore, if one devices becomes inaccessible because of a broken connection, the other one is aware of the conditions in which the inaccessible reference is still valuable. We propose // |
