Bruce Nelson largely solved the problems in his doctoral dissertation (1981 at CMU) and then went on to write the paper widely considered the paper that made RPC a core tool for distributed systems with Andy Birrell in 1984.

Not only did he invent LDAP, which later formed the centerpiece of his PhD dissertation, he was sole PI on the NSF grant that sponsored the research!
