Publisher's Note
A distributed application is designed to access resources across a network. In a broad sense, these resources could be user input, a central database, configuration files, etc., that are distributed on various computers across the network rather than found on a single computer. RPC or remote procedure calling is the ability to distribute the execution of functions on remote computers, outside of the application's current address space. This allows you to break large or complex programming problems into routines that can be executed independently of one another to take advantage of multiple computers. Thus, RPC makes it possible to attack a problem using a form of parallel or multi-processing. Written from a programmer's perspective, this book shows what you can do with RPC & presents a framework for learning it.

Written from a programmer's perspective, this book shows what you can do withSun RPC, the de facto standard on UNIX systems. It covers related programmingtopis for Sun and other UNIX systems and teaches through examples.

Industry Reviews
RPC, or remote procedure calling, is the ability to distribute parts of a program to other computers on a network. Two major distributed computing environments are proposed as emerging standards: the Open Networking Consortium (ONC) and the Open Software Foundation's DCE. This book examines both from a programmer's perspective, showing what can be done with RPC and providing examples. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
