Abstract
An Input Interface functions for a Cooperative Service Interface unit and enables data from a network to be placed in a designated input buffer of a Network Provider (NP) which can convey pointers to a Distributed System Service (DSS) unit's image buffer pool for access of the data by said DSS from memory. Sharing of buffer pools and lock pools lessen the overhead and latency which would normally burden such data transfers.
