Abstract

An InterProcessor Communication (IPC) Protocol network (100) includes at least one IPC client (102) and an IPC server (108). The IPC protocol allows for the IPC client (102) to register with the IPC server (108) which will provide the means for the two to communicate freely without any limitations on what software architectures, operating systems, hardware, etc. each depend on. The IPC protocol in one embodiment of the invention provides for dynamic IPC node configuration in a server based IPC communication management framework.
