Receive Message Processor For A Solicited Message Packet Transfer System

US Patent:
4704717, Nov 3, 1987
Filed:
Jul 22, 1986
Appl. No.:
6/888732
Inventors:
Paul A. King - Needham MA
Assignee:
Prime Computer, Inc. - Natick MA
International Classification:
H04J 326
US Classification:
370 94
Abstract:
A system for transferring solicited message packets between data processors coupled on a serial communications path. A solicitor processor includes a receiver message processor adapted to allocate portions of the solicitor processor memory for storing the header portions of received solicited and unsolicited data packets. The receive message processor identifies solicited data packets. For those message packets, predetermined allocated locations in the solicitor processor memory are identified from sub-portions of the header portions, and the data portions of those packets are then stored in the identified locations. Unsolicited data packets are identified as such, and are processed conventionally.
