  2. Null-terminated string - Wikipedia

    Some systems use "modified UTF-8" which encodes NUL as two non-zero bytes (0xC0, 0x80) and thus allow all possible strings to be stored. This is not allowed by the UTF-8 standard, because it is an overlong encoding, and it is seen as a security risk. Some other byte may be used as end of string instead, like 0xFE or 0xFF, which are not used in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuple_space

    Objects, when deposited in an Object Space are passive, i.e., their methods cannot be invoked while the objects are in the Object Space.
