RPC - Sun Implementation

Description

This RPC project uses the Sun Implementation to create a concurrent server that serves the following methods - calculations:

• Dot product (X * Y)
• mean values Ex and Ey
• The product r * (X + Y)

Main project files:

• RPC server (ask1_server.c)
• RPC client / Socket server (ask1_client.c)
• Socket client (client.c)

A user (socket client) connects to the socket server using TCP AF_INET socket. The user enters which method to use (1, 2 or 3), and the necessary data. X and Y are vectors, and r is a real (float) number.
The RPC client receives this data and sends it to the RPC server, which implements the above methods.

This project was made during my Distributed Systems course in University.

Tested using WSL 2.0, Windows 11.

How to run

1. sudo apt-get install rpcbind
2. sudo rpcbind
3. rpcgen –C –a ask1.x
4. make //will probably need to rename makefile to Makefile.
5. gcc client.c –o client
6. ./ask1_server
7. ./ask1_client localhost <port>
8. ./client localhost <port>
