How to Design Interprocess Communication

There are many aspects and possibilities that must be considered when designing the interprocess communication. E.g. which communication protocol or transportation mechanism shall be used, how to serialize data, what is the communication behavior, what to do if the connection is broken, etc.
This article will discuss the communication between processes and will try to provide a guide how
to consider various aspects and possibilities when designing the communication between processes.
