Abstract
Distributed computing under unix environment can be readily implemented by multithread RPC (remote procedure call). A group of workstations in network can provide computing aid for other computers while running local applications, hence implementing the compuring capability of a multi-CPU server. This paper discussed details of XDR data transmission, server and client program and multithreaded or multi-process RPC.
