1. A bridge for communications between a first computing device and a second computing device in a data communication system, the bridge comprising:

  • a first interface to couple with the first computing device;

    a second interface to couple with the second computing device; and

    a control module configured to process a file input/output (I/O) command from the first computing device so as to allow the first computing device to have an access to at least one of data or resource of the second computing device via the first and second interfaces, the control module further comprising;

    a parser configured to identify whether the file I/O command includes an encoded controller command and retrieve the encoded controller command from the file I/O command if the file I/O command includes an encoded controller command;

    a decoder configured to decode the encoded controller command so as to retrieve a controller command if the file I/O command includes the encoded controller command; and

    a micro processor configured to respond to a first polling signal from the first computing device and a second polling signal from the second computing device when the controller command is retrieved.
