Abstract: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a simple yet powerful primitive for communication and synchronization between distributed processes. A problem with RPC is the fact that it tends to decrease the amount of parallelism in the application, due to its synchronous nature. This paper shows how light-weight processes can be used to circumvent this problem. The combination of blocking RPC calls and light-weight processes provides both simple semantics and efficient exploitation of parallelism. The... (Update)
