IPC uses the Binder driver to implement inter-process communication within a device, whereas RPC uses the intelligent software bus driver to implement inter-process communication across devices. IPC and RPC generally use the client-server model for communication. The client (service requester) obtains the proxy of the server (service provider) and uses this proxy to read and write data. The server registers system abilities (SAs) with the system ability manager (SAMgr), which manages the SAs and provides interfaces for clients. To interact with an SA, the client must obtain the proxy of the SA from SAMgr. In OpenHarmony documents, proxy represents the service requester, and stub represents the service provider. +Inter-process communication (IPC) and remote procedure call (RPC) are used to implement cross-process communication.
