/**
- * A Packet is the structure to handle requests between two levels
- * of the memory system. The Request is a global object that trancends
- * all of the memory heirarchy, but at each levels interface a packet
- * is created to transfer data/requests. For example, a request would
- * be used to initiate a request to go to memory/IOdevices, as the request
- * passes through the memory system several packets will be created. One
- * will be created to go between the L1 and L2 caches and another to go to
- * the next level and so forth.
- *
- * Packets are assumed to be returned in the case of a single response. If
- * the transaction has no response, then the consumer will delete the packet.
+ * A Packet is used to encapsulate a transfer between two objects in
+ * the memory system (e.g., the L1 and L2 cache). (In contrast, a
+ * single Request travels all the way from the requester to the
+ * ultimate destination and back, possibly being conveyed by several
+ * different Packets along the way.)
