- Method Modifiers:
- The protected methods of Threaded Objects are protected by pthreads, such that only one context may call that method at a time. 
- The private methods of Threaded Objects can only be called from within the Threaded Object during execution.

  Data Storage:
  As a rule of thumb, any data type that can be serialized can be used as a member of a Threaded object, it can be read and written from any context with a reference to the Threaded Object. 
  Not every type of data is stored serially, basic types are stored in their true form.
