"Pipe is a communication conduit or pathway with two ends. You can use pipe to exchange the data between two different processes, or within the same process. It's like a walkie-talkie. You give the other party one set and he can use it to communicate with you."

See the tutorial on pipes at

http://win32assembly.online.fr/tut21.html

for further information.
