Appl. No.:

12/605772

Inventors:

Jonathan W. Frazier - Mableton GA, US

Abstract:

The present invention relates to an accelerated process and corresponding computer program for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communications with multiple remote computers that results in much greater speed and economy of computer resources. The process decouples the previously connection-oriented nature of TCP and allows it to be used in a much more efficient connection-less manner by combining a process of sending TCP packets out in a connection-less manner and receiving communications by listening on a network interface. The state of communications is tracked by a state table that is updated as the communication process proceeds with TCP communication information and application layer information encapsulated within the TCP communication.
