Named Pipes vs. Remoting?

S

Sam Marrocco

I'm writing several small applications that will be run at the same time
on a single machine, and want them to be able to send data between them
using some form of communication. The messages are usually small, on the
order of a few hundred bytes, and may be sent at the rate of one per second.

I've been reading up on Remoting, Named Pipes and other forms, and was
wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to an IPC method to use for
something like this. Key to this scenario is that any of the different
apps may or may not be running at a given time, so there is no central
"server" app. Everything needs to be peer-to-peer, and any combination
of apps can be started in any order.

Any suggestions?
