a collection of CPU registers addressable by number. [SILC99

a critical resource of modern processors

The set of registers in a processor.

Registers a new file in the current collection. The file may reside in any of the resources brokered by the SRB but is currently limited to unix file systems. No copying of the file is performed, but a 'link' is registered. The SRB should have 'write' permission to the file in the remote resource. The user can also associate metadata with the file during the registration process.
