6. The computer-implemented method of claim 4 , wherein selectively invoking a de-serialization module further comprises: identifying a de-serialization bytecode instruction within the execution plan; and selecting a de-serialization module that de-serializes the item of information according to the de-serialization bytecode instruction from a plurality of de-serialization modules.
