Because each message must pass through the DBus daemon, a message sent by a client process must undergo at least two context switches to be propagated to the client process on the other side.

They are very much like C . A . R . Hoare's monitors and provide the opportunity for controlled mutual exclusion and synchronization between client processes, using MCP EVENTs and the Dahm locking technique.

A client process on the local user computer takes the initiative to start the communication, while a server process on the file server or print server remote computer passively waits for requests to start a communication session

The glusterfs client process, which connects to servers with a custom protocol over TCP / IP, InfiniBand or Sockets Direct Protocol, creates composite virtual volumes from multiple remote servers using stackable " translators ".

When using an object, it's a good practice for the client process to provide the member's interface name besides the member's name, but is only mandatory when there is an ambiguity caused by duplicated member names available from different interfaces implemented by the object & mdash; otherwise, the selected member is undefined or erroneous.

:Don't mistake shared memory, a means of inter-process communication, for what MicroXwin does; the latter is essentially moving the X server into the kernel . " Client server " describes the relationship between two components, not the means of those components communication-a client process and server process can communicate by unix-domain sockets, TCP / IP ( network ) sockets, shared memory, or other IPC mechanisms like doors.

Obviously a loop over all of them with WNOHANG " works ", but it multiplies the inefficiency of polling with the inefficiency of waiting on each child separately . ( A careful client process would invoke such a poll _ children ( ) only upon receiving SIGCHLD, but that is still very inefficient if multiple such libraries are in use ! ) Ideally, a "'clever library API "'would support the traditional Unix programming model ( including "'communicating with the child processes "'as well as waiting on them ) without assuming that it controlled all the subprocess-oriented business of the client program . ( In particular, this disqualifies the strategy of, say, framework .)
