Yes, I thought your question was deeper in fact.
tdeio system is in principle "simple". When an application needs a file
(whether a local one or remote one), is uses a
tdeio job to request it. A corresponding tdeio-slave will actually do the work to get the
file and send back to the
tdeio requesting application.
Under the hood, there is much more going on, including task scheduling for asynchronous
tasks.
Not sure there is some documentation about it. I recently had to dwell into the tdeio
subsystem to debug bug 2685 and I
found useful info in the tdelibs html files related to the class involved. See
tdeio/tdeio documentations in tdelibs
file:///opt/trinity/share/doc/tde/HTML/en/tdelibs-apidocs/tdeio/tdeio/html/classTDEIO_1_1Job.html
and navigate around from there.

Forgot to mention that protocols are special instances of tdeio-slaves that make a
speficic file available through a
given protocol.
For example an ftp tdeio-slaves will make a file on an ftp server looks like a local file
to any tde application.
