Abstract
A method for exchanging data in a first host computer coupled to a network. The network is also coupled to a second host computer. The method includes employing a first Transmit Control Block (Tx TCB) to facilitate transmitting first data associated with a bi-directional data flow from the first host computer to the second host computer. The first data is transmitted using the TCP protocol. The first Tx TCB is associated with the first host computer and is configured for storing transmit-facilitating parameters associated with the transmitting the first data using the TCP protocol. The method also includes employing a first Receive Control Block (Rx TCB) to facilitate receiving second data associated with the bi-directional data flow. The second data is transmitted from the second host computer to the first host computer using the TCP protocol. The first Rx TCB is associated with the first host computer and is configured for storing receive-facilitating parameters associated with the receiving the second data using the TCP protocol. In accordance with this embodiment of the invention, the first Tx TCB and the first Rx TCB are employed to simultaneously service a transmit request pe…
