There's an IPC module, but Perl also has built in support for forking and
piping, which is the simplest way for inter-process communication.
POE is a newer Perl architecture that enables the sharing of data (and
code) between multiple processes. It's more like RMI or CORBA in that
sense -- it is an object environment that lets you send and receive to
remote objects.
