This article explains why the traditional %CPU metric can be deceptive, describes how CPU stalls and memory bottlenecks affect perceived utilization, and offers practical guidance on using IPC and performance counters to obtain a more accurate view of system performance.
This article provides a detailed source‑code analysis of RePlugin's process management, covering process startup, attachBaseContext handling, IPC initialization, PMF setup, plugin installation, synchronization across processes, and the internal mechanisms for loading and updating plugins.
This article explains MMKV's design, the challenges of adding multi‑process support on Android, the IPC architecture choices, file‑lock synchronization mechanisms, and performance comparisons with SharedPreferences and SQLite.
This article explains the two inter‑process communication methods in Electron, demonstrates why the remote module behaves like a reference rather than a copy, and reveals its internal implementation that mirrors Java RMI by wrapping objects and functions as remote proxies using synchronous IPC messages.
Andromeda is an open‑source Android framework that unifies local and cross‑process component communication by providing blocking IPC, a global event bus, remote callbacks, and a dispatcher‑based architecture, solving the limitations of existing single‑process routing solutions.
This article explains Linux shared memory IPC, covering its data structures, system limits, essential API calls for creating, controlling, attaching, and detaching memory segments, conventions between parent and child processes, and provides a complete C example demonstrating interprocess communication.
This article explains how Node.js uses the Cluster module to create a master‑worker multi‑process architecture, detailing worker creation, inter‑process communication via socketpair, handling of shared ports, and provides practical code examples for master, slave, and low‑level libuv interactions.
This guide explains how to link the Ethereum Wallet client with a local Geth node on both Windows and macOS, covering process inspection, IPC sharing, the attach command, and alternative launch options to avoid duplicate nodes and port conflicts.
This article explains how Pandora.js solves inter‑process communication challenges by introducing IPC‑Hub, showing simple domain‑socket examples, a concise object‑proxy model, and a practical use‑case that offloads heavy webpage‑snapshot tasks to a background process using Puppeteer.
The article explains Android’s ContentProvider mechanism, detailing how providers are published by the system, how the ActivityManagerService registers them, and how the ContentResolver in client processes acquires and interacts with these providers across processes using Binder IPC.
This article explains the concepts of anonymous and named pipes in Linux, compares their characteristics, shows how to create them with mknod and mkfifo, and provides a complete C example that implements a two‑process chat program using threads and pipe I/O.
This article explains shared memory concepts, demonstrates how to create, read, write, and delete PHP shmop segments with code examples, discusses atomic operations using semaphores, and compares its speed against memcache and file I/O, offering practical guidance for backend developers.
This tutorial introduces Electron, the Chromium‑Node.js framework for building cross‑platform desktop apps with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, walks through a simple “Hello World” project, explains its main and renderer processes, key modules such as IPC, remote and webview, and shows how to package the app for Windows and macOS.
Android Content Providers are a core component that expose a uniform, permission‑controlled CRUD interface via content:// URIs, require manifest declaration, load lazily, support custom implementations, multi‑process instances, shared‑memory cursor transfers, observer notifications, and handle large‑data limits through batching.
The article explains how to turn a traditional Android singleton into a cross‑process object by having the singleton implement an AIDL interface, exposing it through a bound Service, and using Parcelable‑based Binder serialization so multiple processes share the same instance while handling IPC, threading, and data‑type constraints.
This article demonstrates how to replace Node.js's limited parent‑child IPC with a simple, newline‑delimited JSON protocol over TCP or file sockets using Midway 5.0, providing full‑duplex client‑server communication for arbitrary processes.
This article explains how to build a robust multi‑process Node.js server using the cluster module, covering round‑robin load balancing, graceful worker shutdown, process monitoring, and inter‑process communication with code examples for both master and worker processes.
