    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a network device apparatus that includes a network interface card to process a received packet. In some examples, based on the received packet only including one or more frames for which acknowledgement of receipt is offloaded to the network interface card, generate an acknowledgement (ACK) message to acknowledge receipt of the received packet. In some examples, a frame for which acknowledgement of receipt is offloaded to the network interface card comprises a STREAM frame compatible with quick User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Internet Connections (QUIC). In some examples, a computing platform is coupled to the network interface card. In some examples, based on the received packet only including any frame for which acknowledgement of receipt is not offloaded to the network interface, the computing platform is to generate an ACK message for the received packet.

    Abstract: An apparatus, a method, and a computer program for generating data packets according to a transport protocol from an application buffer comprising a plurality of data streams is provided. The apparatus comprises an input circuit configured to receive metadata comprising at least one of information about data packet types supported by the transport protocol, information about an offset and a length of the supported data packet types, and information about possible stream header start positions, possible payload start positions and possible offsets in the data streams. Further, the apparatus comprises a parsing circuit configured to identify offsets in an application buffer as possible segmentation points based on the metadata, to segment the application buffer at the possible segmentation points into segments for data packets, and to generate data packets according to the transport protocol based on the segments. Furthermore, an apparatus, a method and a computer program for processing the application buffer is provided.
