Abstract
A method and system to exchange information between computer applications are provided. The system may include a source operating system, a destination operating system and an offload stack, all residing on the device. The source operating system and the destination operating system appear to users as distinct network entities. The offload stack may be configured to function as an intermediate network device for the source operating system. The offload stack, in one embodiment, comprises a back end to receive a message from the source operating system to the destination operating system, an analyzer to determine that the destination operating system resides on the device and a cut though socket module to process the message such that a network layer of the offload stack is bypassed.
