I have made available RPC programming examples that I used in my
tutorial presentation at the Sun User Group Conference entitled
"Writing Distributed Applications using the ONC Platform".

Included in my distributed matrix multiplication program are some routines
that perform async RPC, i.e. the act/process of making the RPC is
seperated from the act/process of getting the reply.  This means that you
can now have a process that has more than one outstanding RPC request
at any given time.

THIS MECHANISM IS NOT SUPPORTED BY SUN MICROSYSTEMS.
