Correct answer: C
Interprocess Communication (IPC) provides mechanisms that allow cooperating processes to exchange information and synchronize their activities.
The two fundamental IPC models are:
Shared Memory Model – processes communicate by accessing a common shared memory region.
Message Passing Model – processes communicate by explicitly sending and receiving messages.
Therefore, both shared memory and message passing are used for communication among cooperating processes.
