Abstract

A communication system includes a destination node containing a message buffer pointer input queue and a message queue memory. Moreover, the message queue memory includes message buffers. A source node of the communication system generates data packets and a message buffer pointer packet. A message network of the communication system routes the data packets and the message buffer pointer packet to the destination node. The destination node writes a data message in a message buffer of the message queue memory based on the data packets and enqueues the message buffer pointer into the message buffer pointer input queue. Further, the destination node dequeues the message buffer pointer from the message buffer pointer input queue and accesses the data message in the message buffer based on a message buffer pointer.
