Abstract
Before starting data transfer, the sender node sends the CONNECT message requesting security of hardware resources necessary for data transfer to the receiver node. Each node relaying the CONNECT message secures the CPU time and bandwidth necessary for data transfer and sends the CONNECT message to the receiver node. Upon receipt of the CONNECT message, the receiver node reserves the CPU time necessary for data reception and then sends the ACCEPT command to the sender node. The sender node receives the ACCEPT command and then sends a data packet.
