The present invention relates to improvements for managing remote function calls
and other mechanisms for managing the remote invocation and control of programs.
A separation of the request-driven communication work from one broad unstructured
bulk of work into at least two separate portions of management is proposed: a dispatching
portion and one or more connection portions. Connections are not closed but are
reused whenever advantageous, which yields better performance. A standardized interface
is set up which is able to be used by a plurality of different requester applications.
Thus, a way is found to pass a RFC connection from one application to another,
and the same RFC connection can be used by totally independent applications.
