....call is asynchronous if the client thread returns immediately. In the latter case, the RPC system may include another system call that allows the thread to retrieve results later. Although synchronous is most commonly used, a number of systems provide an asynchronous option as well [ATK91, LS88, WNF90] ffl Orphan handling semantics specify how orphans that is, server computations associated with clients that have failed are dealt with. Orphans not only waste computing resources, but may also interfere with new calls issued by a recovered client. Options for dealing with orphans include ....
