When a first computer instructs transfer of data from the first computer to
a second computer, a transmitting device in the first computer instructs the second
computer to perform pre-read of a translation look-aside buffer, which contains
a transfer-destination virtual address, in concurrence with read-out of initial
data or of initial data for which the transfer-destination address has exceeded
a page boundary, thereby causing virtual-address translation information to be
pre-registered in a translation look-aside buffer from an address translation table
of the second computer. When the second computer instructs transfer of data from
the first computer to the second computer, a receiving device in the first computer
instructs the second computer to perform pre-read of a translation look-aside buffer,
which contains a transfer-destination virtual address, in concurrence with read-out
of initial data or of initial data for which the transfer-destination address has
exceeded a page boundary, thereby causing virtual-address translation information
to be pre-registered in the translation look-aside buffer from an address translation
table of the second computer.
