Introduction

When taking a look at how a computer works, the way it operates may seem complex, and in many ways that is true. But if we take a look at it on a core level, it all comes down to 1 and 0, true and false, on and off as a way of processing information, which is later represented by either other numbering systems or in other forms that are much easier to read.

Inter-Process Communication (IPC)

Introduction

The isolation of a process brings drawbacks, as processes work better together and when sharing information. Given this, processes can be categorized in this context as:

Independent¹
Cooperating²

There are a lot of benefits to enabling cooperation between processes, such as efficiency, speed, and modularity. In order for process cooperation to happen, they need a form of communication that shares data between processes through sending and receiving operations. This is where IPC comes in.
