Remote procedure call

In distributed computing, a remote procedure call (RPC) is an action in which a computer program causes a procedure (subroutine) to execute in a different address space of the current process (commonly on another computer on a shared computer network), which is written as if it were a normal (local) procedure call, without the programmer explicitly writing the details for the remote interaction.
