Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Provides an overview of Windows and Windows NT architecture and shows how Windows NT IPC mechanisms can be used to build client/server applications. Focuses on the different networking/communication methods, such as RPC, Sockets, Named Pipes, MailSlots, and NetBIOS; presents each method with beginners in mind and discusses their respective advantages and disadvantages. Code fragments illustrate the basic design concepts. The binding is less than satisfactory; an inflexible glue binds imperfectly to the pages. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
