+# UNO Remote Protocol (URP)
+
+UNO provides a binary protocol called the UNO Remote Protocol (URP) that provides
+a bridge between UNO environments. This bridge allows processes and objects
+to send method calls and to receive return values. UNO objects in different
+environments are connected by way of this interprocess bridge. The underlying
+connection is made through a socket or pipe. Remote UNO objects are connected
+by means of TCP/IP using the high-level protocol of the URP.
