References provide a way to store the address(s) of objects that live
outside of the naming system. A reference consists of a list of
addresses that represent a communications endpoint for the object being
referenced.
A reference also contains information to assist in the creation of an
instance of the object to which it refers. It contains the name of
the class that will be created and the class name and location of a
factory that will be used to do the actual instance creation.
