Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite. Applications on networked machines can create connections to one another, over which they can exchange data or packets between each other, the TCP protocols on both the client and server machines guarantees reliable and in-order delivery of sender to receiver data over unordered, multiple pathed IP system. TCP also allows many concurrent connections to one IP address, by doing so it is possible to run concurrent servers on one machine, e.g. and email server and web server.
