The key interprocess communication method in [Unix] and [Linux] [OperatingSystem]s. Each program has an input and an output and information flows through the program from the input to the output, if the input buffer is emptied, the [OperatingSystem] pauses the program until more input because available. Pipes are a specialisation of streams, in which both ends of the stream have a pipe. See also PipeLine, pipe(2), [EPIPE], [ESPIPE]
