      <para>
34 
        An architecture whereby programs do not exist
35 
        in flat memory ranges, but must request a hierarchy
36 
        of allocated memory ranges from the operating system.
37 
        The pointers to these ranges are called capabilities.

      <para>
41 
        This design makes it impossible for a program to access
42 
        memory that is not pointed to by one of the
43 
        capabilities granted to the program.
