transmission control protocol (TCP)
The use of common protocols enables different computer systems to exchange information over the internet. (Protocols are a set of network communication procedures that are hardware and operating system independent.) Two of the most important such protocols are Internet protocol (IP) and TCP, together known as TCP/IP. IP enables data to be split into "packets" which may then be transported through any combination of networks before reaching the recipient computer, which then reassembles the packets using the complementary TCP.
