Abstract
A communication system, in which data transmission is interrupted for a bus reset, includes a source and a destination with a receiving buffer. The source is adapted to transmit a segment of data to the destination using address information corresponding to a part of the receiving buffer of the destination. Transmission of the data is interrupted if a process of resetting a bus between the source and the destination occurs. After the process of resetting the bus ends, the transmission of the data resumes without retransmitting data determined by the source to be already stored in the receiving buffer.
