METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR IMPLEMENTING REMOTE PROCEDURE CALLS IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTER SYSTEM

A system and a method for implementing remote procedure calls in a distributed computer system provide a base object class from which all distributed objects can be derived. A program extracting all classes derived from the base class provides an inheritance tree to allow down casting from a root class to a base class and to allow passing high level data structure between participants of a remote procedure call. An Unix script provides stub routines for implementing a client-server model communicating processes.
