Interprocessor Communication

[ph0bYx]

Greetings gentlemen! Happy New Year!

Let me get to the point right away. I have this paper to write on interprocessor communication. Of course I'm doing my due diligence on Google but I'd appreciate it if you could take a quick look in your pdf libraries to see if you have anything related to it in there, and eventually send me those
Also if you have any tips or pointers about this topic I'd appreciate that also.

On a personal note, I know I haven't been much active here in a while. I do check out the boards multiple times per day but I just don't have any inspiration for writing. I'm kinda stuck in the process of rediscovering myself for some time now.

Hey Ph0b, I checked EBSCohost and come up with some articles... they seemed really advanced to me though (lots of equations for interprocessor communication)

So I guess I'm wondering if that is the kind of information you are looking for... and if so I'll pdf them and send em your way.

[ph0bYx]

I'd love to take a look at them. I'm not *quite* sure what exactly I have to write on, have to consult my professor about it which will all be part of the grading. So I'm currently in the information gathering process.

Alright, I downloaded the one that appeared to be legible, also:

Code: Select all

had some good information on the types of IPC.
where do you want me to send the PDF, PM me if it's an email addy

[ph0bYx]

I've stumbled on that one and what confuses me is inter-process comm. == interprocessor comm.?

I'll PM you my email. Thanks a bunch!

inter-process would be so much more logical considering your education IMO. You should ask your teacher about it

[ph0bYx]

I've talked to my professor and he said that interprocessor == interprocess which will make my life much easier =)

[Lundis]

Oh well, they do have some similarities

A process and a processor are completely different things. Anyway, you can ignore those books I sent you then xD

Forgive me but I am confused by what it is that you are asking? Is it the communication of processors as individuals communicate to other individuals? Or is it a multi-core processor that communicates to its other cores? They are piratically similar yet totally different imo.

I have engineered circuits or employed both of the mentioned. So I am curious.

[ph0bYx]

I'm not quite sure as of yet, I will have to go through all the material my professor gave me (and being a heavy procrastinator that ain't gonna happen soon ). I will keep you posted though.
Thanks guys for all the help! I appreciate it!

[ph0bYx]

OK I think I got a better grasp of the task now. It's suppose to be about the communication of individual processors in a distributed system.

A final update: I made a little typo mistake in the name of the paper, it's suppose to be 'interprocess communication'. A little mistake but makes a huge difference. My professor gave me a book to use as a guideline. It's basically about the ISO reference model and it's layers and a little bit about Asynchronous Transfer Mode network. I've already finished the paper successfully, but thanks for all your help guys, I really appreciate it! <3

TOPIC LOCKED for obvious reasons.
