Abstract
Access to data items uses names based on the data in the data items; the name of a data item may be based, at least in part, on a function of some or all of the bits that comprise the data item. A data item may comprise an arbitrary sequence of bits. The function may include a hash function or a message digest function. The name of a data item may be compared to a list of names of other data items.
