Server-CLI Entcommuni Cati ON

This document discusses different methods for client-server communication: sockets, remote procedure calls, and pipes. Sockets allow communication between processes on the same or different machines using IP addresses and port numbers. Remote procedure calls allow a client to make a procedure or function call to a remote server. Pipes provide interprocess communication through two endpoints that allow data to be entered from one end and consumed from the other.
