Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in recent years, the absolute amount of data to be communicated and the number of communication processing times have increased significantly, and high-speed data communication has become necessary, so the processing time has become a problem. . In other words, in conventional communication control devices, data transmission begins after a series of transmission processes, including the above-mentioned pre-transmission processing, then transmission, and finally post-transmission processing. . Therefore, when high-speed data communication is performed using this control procedure, the processing time of the communication control device itself cannot be ignored compared to the time for high-speed communication, and as the number of processes increases, communication control becomes inefficient. There was a drawback that it had to be done.
