Abstract

A system of transmitting messages betwen a client process and a remote process includes a system area network which provides a communications channel between the client process and the remote process. A first channel adapter forms an interface between the client process and the communications channel. The first channel adapter is configured to receive a message from the client process, segment the message into a series of packets, assign a sequence number to each packet, and place the packets in order on the communications channel. A second channel adapter forms an interface between the remote process and the communications channel. The second channel adapter is configured to receive packets from the communications channel and send at least one acknowledgement message to the first channel adapter in response to the received packets. The acknowledgement message has a packet sequence number which identifies a packet received at the second channel adapter, a starting message sequence number which identifies a message received at the second channel adapter, and an ending message sequence number which identifies the number of message received at the second channel adapter since creation of the communications channel.
