hmm, i have not thought about the kind of structure to transmit yet.

The first thing i thought was, lets use network sockets to communicate
with the core.

But dbus wants to implement such things too:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus

"Currently the communicating applications are on one computer, but
TCP/IP option is available and remote support planned."

Does anyone know how computer games communicate player positions? That
might be a high performance solution to look at.
