You only need to read the thesis summary which starts at page 224 in<br />
the PDF. If you have time, however, I'd suggest looking at the<br />
rest, particularly the introduction and related work.<br />

Compare the perspective of this RPC implementation description with<br />
the more design-oriented focus of Nelson's thesis.<br />

This is an RFC for one of the early UNIX RPC mechanisms, SUNRPC. Note SUNRPC is still used on modern UNIX and Linux systems for services such as NFS.<br />
