Php sending commands to a background process

Question

I am writing a web-service. The PHP processor should handover the processing to an executable file located on the server.

On arrival of a request , the PHP should run the executable & take the output from the executable back & process it further in PHP , while the executable continues to run in the background. How can this be achieved?

Please give more information or this post will be unsalvagable and be closed due to little reusability... — Mathieu Dumoulin

I made a webservice, which can run calculations in background and used files to communicate.

Request from client
create job file
start background php cli which runs job file
if the job process is done, it writes it's result to a result file
when the client requests the result from a job, the server process reads it from the result file
