Abstract
A data exchange system that exchanges data between processors is provided. The system includes a host processor and a target processor. Data is exchanged by forming a data pipeline between the target processor and the host processor. The data pipeline includes a data unit on the target processor, an emulator and a device driver on the host processor. The data exchange system sends data through the data pipe line by transferring the data from a target memory on the target processor with the data unit to the emulator. The data exchange system transfers the data from the emulator to the first device driver.
