    In SW world fencing means job controlling on priority basis. In AI it actually refers to customized phase breaking. A well fenced graph means no matter what is source data volume process will not cough in dead locks. It actually limits the number of simultaneous processes.

    I think he is refering to "Phasing" only.Phasing:- Its a way to manage the resource and avoid "deadlocks" in the Abi run. it limits the number of simultaneous processes by breaking up the graph into different phases, only one of which is running at any given time.
