Abstract:
1. A computing device implemented method comprising: programmatically identifying attributes of arbitrary data located at a first computing unit without requiring input from a user, the attributes of the arbitrary data including one of: a size of the data, a type of the data, or a size and type of the data, and where: generating a header message, where: inserting, based on the programmatically identifying, the attributes for the arbitrary data into the header message, where: sending the header message from the first computing unit to the second computing unit, the header message including the arbitrary data when the arbitrary data is of a size that fits in the header message; generating a payload message holding the arbitrary data when the arbitrary data exceeds the size that fits into the header message; sending the payload message subsequent to sending the header message; and performing error detection, user interrupt detection and deadlock detection while sending the payload message.
