In Lecture V we found reason to think that the ultimate constituents* of the world do not have the characteristics of either mind or matter as ordinarily understood: they are not solid
persistent objects moving through space, nor are they fragments of "consciousness." But we found two ways of grouping particulars, one into "things" or "pieces of matter," the other into series of "perspectives," each series being what may be called a "biography." Before we can define either sensations or images, it is necessary to consider this twofold classification in somewhat greater detail, and to derive from it a definition of perception.
The author continues the discussion with Cuba, arguing that this island "was a
persistent object of US imperial desires as a 'natural,' though exotic appendage of the United States" (62).
Qatar has been a
persistent object of interest for a good portion of the utilities sector over the last year, with many commentators talking in excited terms about the country's construction and infrastructure boom.
Processes are loosely coupled; communicating and synchronizing their activities using a
persistent object store called a space, rather than through direct communication [1].
Those who justify it with confident proclamations of "I have nothing to hide, why should they?" overlap substantially with the class of those who have never been the
persistent object of suspect profiling, never been harassed, never been stigmatized just for the way they look.

Our algorithm addresses the above problems by extending a traditional garbage collection approach and integrating it closely with the mechanisms provided by the
persistent object store.
For added reliability, it uses a
persistent object store to periodically checkpoint an agent; in case of system failure and restart, the agent executes from its last checkpoint.
The Web provides uniform object names (URLs),
persistent object storage, and delivery of invocation messages to objects.
Here, 15 contributions from international researchers address such topics as visualizing COBOL legacy systems with UML; augmenting UML to support the design and evolution of user interfaces; and using XML as a tool for the automated migration of
persistent object models.
In fact, this is runtime linguistic reflection, as it has been used in
persistent object systems [Stemple et al.
