Abstract
A method for transmitting data between a sender queue of a sender intermediate layer of a protocol stack and a receiver queue of a receiver intermediate layer of the protocol stack implemented with a sliding window protocol. The method includes receiving a data message or a collection of data messages from a sender messaging layer; tagging the data message or the collection of data messages with a unique identifier; writing the data message or the collection of data messages tagged with the unique identifier as a data window in the sender queue; transmitting a front data window of the sender queue to the receiver queue; receiving a single receipt-acknowledgement message after the receiver transport layer has received all of the front data window; and receiving a commit-acknowledgement message after the receiver messaging layer has read from the receiver intermediate layer all of the front data window.
