            Abstract : 
The bitfile mover of the IEEE mass storage systems reference model is the module responsible for movement of the data body of a bitfile. The dependence on the communication infrastructure of a site makes it poorly understood. An examination is made of the mover requirements, what an abstraction of it may look like, how it functions in this abstraction, and some possible examples of how it may be implemented.<>
