Remoting is basically means, running the a function or a part of code in a remote computer for processing power or/and security reasons.

For example a fight game client want to run pickGoldFromGround() function but this function shouldn't be run on game client as if it is run on client you can change the inside code and modify the results to your needs which is meant as cheating.

Instead, the function is called remotely from game server machine, the client waits the result of pickGoldFromGround() function from game server, the server will run the function and will decide whether the player's request is applicable or not and return the values.

The client side will busy-wait until Remote Call Procedure is completed, and will get the outputs when the server submits the results from function.
