JSONSchema has a concept of "$refs", which is a way to encode a pointer to a value in a JSONSchema. $refs can point to another node in the same graph, a node in another JSONSchema on the same filesystem, or a node in another JSONSchema fetched over the network. $refs are used in JSONSchema, but are described in the separate JSONPointer spec [0].
