Patent abstract
A plurality of virtual circuits, each including at least two network nodes, may be established over a single network connection for inter-process messaging. The network connection may be opened asynchronously via a non-blocking open. A virtual circuit including three or more nodes may be implemented in a star formation or a relay formation. Messages may be sent as unicast or broadcast messages. An additional virtual circuit may be opened for the purpose of transmitting status information regarding the network connection between the networked computer systems.
