Abstract
A node in a network that receives data from a data source, such as another node. The receiving node sends a token identifier to the data source and receives data from the data source, along with the token identifier. A token identifier identifies a location in memory on the receiving node, but is not the same as an address in the memory. Thus, a token identifier is preferably neither a physical memory address nor a virtual address.
