Branco,

No it does not, the reference has not any more meanings than being a
reference.

Exactly what "does not"? What are you answering to? Please, learn how

it is not a kind of processor occupier).

I'll do my best trying to translate this phrase, but don't blame me if
the meaning comes out wrong (next time, please try simpler phrases if
English is difficult for you):
