Synchronous and asynchronous communication :-
A queue is associated with each message destination. Sending processes cause messages to be added to remote queues and receiving processes remove messages from local queues. Communication between the sending and receiving processes may be either synchronous or asynchronous. In the synchronous form of communication, the sending and receiving processes synchronize at every message.
In this case, both send and receive are blocking operations. Whenever a send is issued the sending process (or thread) is blocked until the corresponding receive is issued. Whenever a receive is issued by a process (or thread), it blocks until a message arrives.In the asynchronous form of communication, the use of the send operation is nonblocking in that the sending process is allowed to proceed as soon as the message has been copied to a local buffer, and the transmission of the message proceeds in parallel with the sending process. The receive operation can have blocking and non-blocking variants.
In the non-blocking variant, the receiving process proceeds with its program after issuing a receive operation, which provides a buffer to be filled in the background, but it must separately receive notification that its buffer has .
Message destinations :-
In the Internet protocols, messages are sent to (Internet address, local port) pairs. A local port is a message destination within a computer, specified as an integer. A port has exactly one receiver but can have many senders. Processes may use multiple ports to receive messages. Any process that knows the number of a port can send a message to it. Servers generally publicize their port numbers for use by clients.
Reliability :-
As far as the validity property is concerned, a point-to-point message service can be described as reliable if messages are guaranteed to be delivered despite a ‘reasonable’ number of packets being dropped or lost. In contrast, a point-to-point message service can be described as unreliable if messages are not guaranteed to be delivered in the face of even a single packet dropped or lost. For integrity, messages must arrive uncorrupted and without duplication.
Ordering :-
Some applications require that messages be delivered in sender order – that is, the order in which they were transmitted by the sender. The delivery of messages out of sender order is regarded as a failure by such applications.
Marshalling:-
It is the process of taking a collection of data items and assembling them into a form suitable for transmission in a message.
