Abstract
A method and apparatus for coupling a signal from one node to another node prepares a signal for transmission, performs error checking on such signal while simultaneously transferring such signal within a transmitting node, transmits the signal from the transmitting node, receives and formats the signal at a receiving node, including an identifying portion and a data portion, and directly stores the data portion in memory that is directly accessible by a user process executing in the receiving node while simultaneously performing error checking.
