Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in terms
of complexity.
D-BUS supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus decreasing
latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be low-overhead;
messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using XML. D-BUS also
supports a method call mapping for its messages, but it is not required;
this makes using the system quite simple.
This package provides the Perl D-BUS bindings.
