SIMPLIFIED INPUT/OUTPUT PROTOCOL Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC G06F3/00 G06F13/16 G06F15/173 

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to methods and systems for downloading I/O processes from a first computer onto a second computer using a network interconnection through RDMA. The method and system includes a client on the first computer provided with information through a RDMA connection with a server on the second computer through a simplified input/output protocol. Overall, the protocol includes a network detection step, followed by I/O processing. At the detection step, the client and the server determine the shortest list of shared providers capable of RDMA. During I/O processing, the client gives I/O requests for downloading from the second machine through a mutually authenticated channel. The I/O model is asymmetrical with reading operations carried out through traditional sending. Requests for reading and recording can be completed in poll mode and in interruption mode. Buffers are controlled through a confidence mechanism.

EFFECT: simplified input/output protocol.
