The gap mechanism resembles the Hold register idea of ATNs ( Woods 1970 ) and the treatment of bounded domination metavariables in lexical functional grammars ( LFGs ) ( Bresnan 1982 , p. 235 ff . ) , but it is different from these in that the process of filling the Hold register equivalent involves two steps separately initiated by two independent nodes .
