Abstract

Indirect naming of processes in the distributed message communication can be achieved either by introducing channels or ports (channel oriented scheme) or by using process variables (process oriented scheme). The communication type is introduced on top of the process oriented scheme in order to achieve the same degree of static checking on legitimate communication between processes as the channel oriented scheme. This can be done without introducing a passive shared object in the language semantics which is a major disadvantage of the channel oriented scheme, in a distributed message communication environment.
