Detailed Description

This is a datatype that is used to keep track of which servers and services have already been processed when merging services together to present to a server or client.

As requests are sent between connected Servers, a ProvidersStateTable maintains a list of the Services already used on each Server. This is used to, for instance, prevent deadlocks occurring where two Servers have connected Services with each other.
