Process Descriptors
A process descriptor is a form of process file name that always includes the node and
seq-no sections of the name; when identifying a named process, it never includes the
optional qualifiers qual-1 or qual-2. Operating system procedures always use the
external file-name notation when returning a process descriptor.
Process Handles
A process handle is a 10-word structure that identifies a single named or unnamed
process.
