PROTECTED DATA TRANSFER

摘要

A data management controller for a data processing system, the data processing system being capable of running one or more user space applications, each user space application defining: (i) one or more interface storage locations with which the data management controller can interact, each interface storage location being capable of storing interface data; and (ii) one or more services for processing data, each service interacting with at least one interface storage location during a processing run; the data management controller being configured to: (i) register each of the interface storage locations as an input data location or an output data location in response to the user space application so identifying the respective interface storage location to the data management controller; (ii) register the output data locations of user space applications as designated inputs to input data locations of one or more other user space applications; and (iii) in response to a user space application signalling that a processing run of a service is complete, initiate copying of the interface data stored in the output data locations with which that user space application interacts to the input data locations to which those output data locations are the designated inputs.

1. A data management controller for a data processing system, the data processing system being capable of running one or more user space applications, each user space application defining:
one or more interface storage locations with which the data management controller can interact, each interface storage location being capable of storing interface data; and one or more services for processing data, each service interacting with at least one interface storage location during a processing run; wherein the data management controller is configured to:
register each of the interface storage locations as an input data location or an output data location in response to the user space application so identifying the respective interface storage location to the data management controller;register the output data locations of user space applications as designated inputs to input data locations of one or more other user space applications; andin response to a user space application signalling that a processing run of a service is complete, initiate copying of the interface data stored in the output data locations with which that user space application interacts to the input data locations to which those output data locations are the designated inputs.
