Jenkins uses a library it calls remoting, which takes care of establishing a channel, sending closures and automatically loading the required Java classes on the remote machine.
There's some documentation on how it works here (PDF).

I am trying to understand the excat mean of communciation between master and slave in jenkins. How does the jobs/instructions from master to the slave is being trasmitted ?
I am aware that a TCP/IP bi-deirectional link is established.
Is there any document that explains in details ( not just overall ) mean of communication between master and slave? Also, what are the packages in the source code that are invloved in the communication ?
So far I know its,
getTCPslaveAgentListener
getSlaveagentPort()
SetSlaveAgentPort
CheckTaskLisnter
Thanks,
