Abstract
A method (300) and communication system (400, 500, 600, 1300, 1400) provide a remote procedure call from a client to a server via an unreliable communication channel using a plurality of retransmission timers. The method includes transmitting, by the client to the server, a request and waiting for a confirm message and retransmitting, by the client to the server, the request after each of a predetermined sequence of time-out periods implemented by the plurality of retransmission timers until a confirm message is received.
