Claims (2)
- Asynchronous communication via out is more efficient and conceptually apt than synchronous procedure calls in parallel contexts.Foundational argument for Linda's design: processes should not block waiting for responses when they can dump results asynchronously.
- In parallel programming, asynchronous communication is far more common than synchronous.Basis for preferring Linda's out (asynchronous) to remote procedure calls.
