A stateless-object method is provided for executing instructions. The method: establishes a central repository of states, cross-referencing state locations in memory, to identifiers; calls a first method; accesses a stateless-object in response to the first method, the stateless-object including an identifier and a second method; reads the identifier; uses the identifier to cross-reference the stateless-object's state location in the repository; accesses the located state; and, instantiates the second method in response to accessing the state. The central repository of states may cross-reference a first state to a first identifier, and the step of accessing the stateless-object includes accessing a plurality of stateless-objects in response to the first method, with each of the stateless-objects including the first identifier. Then, the step of locating the state of the stateless-object using the identifier includes locating the first state for each of the plurality of stateless-objects by using the first identifier.
