19 The Transparent Inter-Process Communication (TIPC) protocol offers
20 total address transparency between processes which allows applications
21 in a clustered computer environment to communicate quickly and reliably
22 with each other, regardless of their location within the cluster.
23
24 TIPC originated at the telecommunications manufacturer Ericsson. The
25 first open source version of TIPC was created in 2000 when Ericsson
26 released its first Linux version of TIPC. TIPC was introduced in the
27 mainline Linux kernel in 2006 and is now widely used both within and
28 outside of Ericsson.
