Abstract
A transport engine and method. The transport engine including an async socket module to provide network communications, a client module, coupled to the async socket module and an application layer, to initiate outbound network communications, and a server module, coupled to the async socket module and the application layer, to handle inbound network communications. The client module and the server module utilize the async socket module to read and write data to and from a network. The async socket module includes a buffer having a variable buffer size to enable the async socket module to read data without having to copy the data. The async socket module, the client module, and the server module operate asynchronously on a single thread of execution.
