Patent attributes
A method for communication includes receiving at a receiving node over a network from a sending node a succession of data packets belonging to a sequence of transactions, including at least one or more first packets belonging to a first transaction and one or more second packets belonging to a second transaction executed by the sending node after the first transaction, wherein at least one of the second packets is received at the receiving node before at least one of the first packets. At the receiving node, upon receipt of the data packets, data are written from the data packets in the succession to respective locations in a buffer. Execution of the second transaction at the receiving node is delayed until all of the first packets have been received and the first transaction has been executed at the receiving node.
