I don't know of any paper, but the answer is probably based on the
similarities and differences between AMQP-style messaging and RPC.
The similarities are that it's trivial to emulate RPC over AMQP, and
get very good performance (we measure latencies of 50-200usec per hop,
and capacities of 10K-20K 500-byte messages per second per core).

The differences are that AMQP builds in routing abstraction and
queuing, both which help to build larger-scale architectures.  The
AMQP concepts of Exchange and Queue make it all happen elegantly.
