Abstract<br />

<strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong> is an <strong>implementation</strong> of the <strong>TCP</strong>/<strong>IP</strong> protocol stack. The focus of the <strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong> stack is to<br />

reduce memory usage and code size, making <strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong> suitable for use in small clients with very<br />

limited resources such as embedded systems. In order to reduce processing and memory demands,<br />

<strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong> uses a tailor made API that does not require any data copying.<br />

This report describes the design and <strong>implementation</strong> of <strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong>. The algorithms and data structures<br />

used both in the protocol <strong>implementation</strong>s and in the sub systems such as the memory and<br />

buffer management systems are described. Also included in this report is a reference manual for<br />

the <strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong> API and some code examples of using <strong>lw<strong>IP</strong></strong>.
