Abstract
An apparatus for sharing resources between interconnected processes via an interprocess communication may include a processor and a memory storing executable instructions that in response to execution by the processor cause the apparatus to at least perform operations including receiving a request from at least one first process that controls one or more resources. The request may include data requesting assignment of one or more rights to share at least one of the resources with at least a second process. The instructions may further cause the apparatus to assign the rights to share the resource with the second process and remove the rights to share the resource from the second process upon receipt of a first message. Corresponding computer program products and methods are also provided.
