An actor can contain other actors (as a [[object composition|composition]]). In ROOM these are called ''actor references'' ofor ''actor refs'' for short.

This allows to create structural hierarchies of arbitrary depth.

AsLike other [[object-oriented programming|object oriented programming languages]] ROOM hasuses the concept of [[class (computer programming)|classes]].

Actors are classes which can be instantiated as [[object-oriented programming|objects]] several times in the system.

Of course each instance of an actor class is in its own state and can communicate with other instances of the same (and other) classes.
