How does RM compare with other communication methods?
A. Inter-machine communication mechanisms are many and varied. Pipes, Sockets and Mailboxes are typical ways of having one machine communicate with others. To effectively implement designs using these techniques requires particular care. Programmers must address communication path failures, timeouts and possibly retransmission protocols to produce an effective implementation. Incoming data must be read at frequent intervals to prevent data overrun losses. Network connection management can become a major part of an overall design, diverting creative energy from the original problem you are trying to solve. All this translates to a longer development times, more difficult testing, and higher staffing costs as more experienced programmers are required to complete the tasks. AmirusMM, on the other hand, provides a consistent memory interface for communication programs needing information just read it out of memory and programs providing information just write it in. There are no network co
