I suspect you are refering to array fetching, once a SQL statement has been parsed, executed and fetched on the server size the rows are available to be fetched by the client side application. These rows can be fetched in arrays (n rows at a time) to avoid network round trips, how this is achieved depends on the client side language. Many other interfaces support array's includeing PL/SQL for array binds, etc.
