....Remote procedure calls are one of the most widely used methods for distributed computation. Some remote procedure call environments have been integrated into the kernels of operating systems. Examples of these include XINU S RPC facility [41] the implementation of RPC in the Berkeley UNIX kernel [49], and Sprite RPC [48] The Berkeley UNIX RPC and Sprite RPC facilities were largely experimental. Implementing RPC facilities in the kernel makes remote procedure calls significantly faster. However, this makes it impossible to expand them to heterogeneous environments. Since our intent was to ....
