/**
 * A <code>UID</code> represents an identifier that is unique over time
 * with respect to the host it is generated on, or one of 2<sup>16</sup>
 * "well-known" identifiers.
 *
 * <p>The {@link #UID()} constructor can be used to generate an
 * identifier that is unique over time with respect to the host it is
 * generated on.  The {@link #UID(short)} constructor can be used to
 * create one of 2<sup>16</sup> well-known identifiers.
 *
 * <p>A <code>UID</code> instance contains three primitive values:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>unique</code>, an <code>int</code> that uniquely identifies
 * the VM that this <code>UID</code> was generated in, with respect to its
 * host and at the time represented by the <code>time</code> value (an
 * example implementation of the <code>unique</code> value would be a
 * process identifier),
 *  or zero for a well-known <code>UID</code>
 * <li><code>time</code>, a <code>long</code> equal to a time (as returned
 * by {@link System#currentTimeMillis()}) at which the VM that this
 * <code>UID</code> was generated in was alive,
 * or zero for a well-known <code>UID</code>
 * <li><code>count</code>, a <code>short</code> to distinguish
 * <code>UID</code>s generated in the same VM with the same
 * <code>time</code> value
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>An independently generated <code>UID</code> instance is unique
 * over time with respect to the host it is generated on as long as
 * the host requires more than one millisecond to reboot and its system
 * clock is never set backward.  A globally unique identifier can be
 * constructed by pairing a <code>UID</code> instance with a unique host
 * identifier, such as an IP address.
