USING REMOTE PROCEDURE CALLS IMPLEMENTING DISTRIBUTED ALGORITHM
unpublished
Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a powerful primitive method used for communication and synchronization between distributed processes. RPC poses a problem that it reduces the amount of parallelism, because of its synchronous nature. This paper shows how simple processes can be used to find a way of avoiding a difficulty in this problem. The combination of blocking RPC calls and lightweight processes provides both simple semantics and efficient exploitation of parallelism. We will describe how two
