Linux Fusion installs the fusion module to your kernel.
Fusion is a high level IPC API providing mechanisms for master/slave environments.
In client/server environments clients delegate every operation to the server which has sole access to shared resources.
The master/slave approach eliminates this overhead by virtually merging the processes at the lower level of their implementation.
This way of making multiple processes look like multiple threads gave Fusion its name.
