| | ====== Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) ====== |
| | |
| | TCP is the [[Internet]]'s [[connection-oriented|connection-oriented communication]] protocol. //TCP// provides a reliable, in-order, transmission of a byte-stream from a [[client]] [[process]] to a [[server]] [[process]]. It also provides features for [[flow_control|flow]] and [[congestion control]]. It has a connection overhead (when created a TCP connection requires some [[handshake|handshaking]], and when closed-down further handshaking is required). Reliable data transfer is achieved by a system of [[ack|acknowledgements]] which add a further overhead. |
