There are lots, its how nearly all Unix rpc was done between
1980-1990.
And it is still an easy way to do things if the number of simultaneous
executions is low and the protocol is simple.

The Dietel & Dietel Python book gives an example of a client server
OXO game built using sockets, if that helps...
