Abstract

Exchange of information between executing processes is one of the primary reasons for process interaction. Many distributed systems implement explicit message passing primitives to facilitate intercommunication. Typically, a process executes a write command to pass a message to another process, and the target process accepts the message by executing a read command. The semantics of write and read may differ considerably depending on the methods used for storing or buffering messages that have been sent but not yet accepted by the receiving process.
