ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for getting descriptors to data and passing the descriptors among data sources and sinks, thereby avoiding copying the data among the data sources and sinks. The data source/sink which consumes the data actual initiates the copying of the actual data itself, using global pointers to the data in the descriptors.
