Shared Memory
Shared memory can be described as mapping a region (segment) of memory that will be mapped and shared by more than one process. This is the fastest form of inter-process communication (IPC) because there is no intermediation - information is transferred directly from a memory segment into the address space of the calling process. The segment can be created by one process and then written to and read by any number of processes.
