- This document provides an introduction to the interprocess
- communication facilities included in the
- 4.3BSD release of the
- .UX *
- system.
- .PP
- It discusses the overall model for interprocess communication
- and introduces the interprocess communication primitives
- which have been added to the system. The majority of the
- document considers the use of these primitives in developing
- applications. The reader is expected to be familiar with
- the C programming language as all examples are written in C.
