Abstract

Despite the fact that many successful distributed systems have been built using remote procedure calls, we've also known for a while that RPC is imperfect, even fundamentally flawed. Lately, however, it seems to be taking even more heat than usual, mainly because of continuing advances in Web services and XML-based messaging.
