Abstract

A document is represented as a node tree in a document processing system. Edits to a node are represented in a change record that has a one-way link to the node. A text mark has a one-way link to the change record. It deletes that link when the changes represented by the change record are reflected in the text mark. A memory management system releases the memory allocated to the change record when no other object links to it.
