a protocol developed for the internet to get data from one network device to another; "TCP uses a retransmission strategy to insure that data will not be lost in transmission"
Provides the means for establishing a connection between two Internet endpoints or hosts. Once a connection is established, TCP ensures that messages are sent and received reliably, so that no information is lost. This is accomplished by breaking transmissions into discrete parts or "segments," numbering the segments, and then putting them back together at the receiving end, always in their original order. If there is a transmission error, TCP knows to resend the segment or segments that were lost in transit. Only when the complete series of segments has been acknowledged as received does TCP break down the host-to-host connection. Back
