Powerful networked workstations are adding a new dimension to the world of computing. Programmers are challenged to write applications that exploit the speed and parallelism of such distributed systems - programs that take advantage of the networking and communication features of high-speed workstations. John Corbin, a senior engineer in Sun Microsystem's networking group, bases his text on RPC (Remote Procedure Call), a technique for programming communication processes in UNIX environments. The book is designed as a professional reference for the working programmer who needs to explore the possibilities of designing distributed networked applications under UNIX. However, it can also be used as a supplemental text in a distributed systems course, providing the basis for laboratory assignments.
