serialise
     
         To represent an arbitrarily complex {data
        structure} in a location-independent way so that it can be
        communicated or stored elsewhere.
     
        For example, an {object} representing a time, with
        {attributes} for year, month, timezone, etc., could be
        serialised as the {string} "2002-02-24T14:33:52-0800", or an
        {XML} element "", or as
        a {binary} string.
     
        As well as providing an external data representation
        (e.g. representing an {integer} as a string of {ASCII}
        digits) and {marshalling} components into a single block of
        data, a serialisation {algorithm} needs to follow {pointers}
        to include objects referred to by the initial object.  This is
        further complicated by the possible presence of cycles in the
        {object graph}.
     
        It should be possible to store the serialised representation
        on disk, or transmit it across a network, and then restore it
        as an object (graph) that is the same as the original.
