<p>This invention relates to a design of an efficient buffer management model in order to increase the efficiency of data exchange between two process threads, - e.g. when implementing a network transport protocol stack. This invention proposes to use an interconnected system of different kinds of memory buffers (100, 101, 102), implemented as asynchronous read/write ring buffers ARWRB. These buffers are organized in a way, in which data can be stored into the buffer or fetched from the buffer essentially avoiding synchronization means like mutexes or semaphores. In contrast to the conventional buffer management model, three ring buffers, namely send ring buffer (100), send token ring buffer (101) and receive ring buffer (102), are used within the transport protocol stack.</p> |
