The Streaming Package

The GAT streaming package consists of three entities GATEndpoint, GATPipe, and GATPipeListener. The class GATEndpoint is used to create connections between two processes while the class GATPipe is used to allow the two so connected processes to exchange information. Finally, the interface GATPipeListener is used by the process which is being to connected to handle the resultant GATPipe instances.
