Things to Remember

Connection oriented service : a session connection is required before any data can be sent

Connectionless Services : session connection is not required before any data sent.

Subjective Questions

Q1:

Define leukemia. 


Type: Short Difficulty: Easy

Show/Hide Answer
Answer: <p>&nbsp;Leukemia is a type of cancer of the bone or bone marrow characterized by an abnormal increase of immature white blood cells called blasts, leukemia is acute when WBCs proliferate do rapidly that they lose the ability to regulate cell division and do not differentiate into mature cells. In the chronic forms of leukemia, the disease develops gradually. The type of leukemia is based on the predominant cell line that is affected.</p>

The Transport Service : Service Provided  To The Upper Layers

The Transport Service : Service Provided To The Upper Layers

Transport Layer Service

The transport layer resides between the application layer and the network layer. It provides the communication services to the application directly. The different services provided by the transport layer are:
â¦Â Connection setup and multiplexing
â¦Â Flow control mechanisms
â¦Â Slow start and congestion control
â¦Â Reliability services


There are basically two types of services provided by the transport layer :


  1. Connection-oriented Services
  2. Connectionless Services

Connection Oriented Services


In connection oriented services a session connection is required before any data can be sent. Handshaking is done to setup the end-to-end connection. This system works only in the bidirectional environment. It doesn't work in the unidirectional environment. Due to connection establishment this type of services becomes more reliable. Due to connection establishment the services are slower than connectionless services.
Example : TCP

Connectionless Services


In connectionless services session connection is not required before any data sent. It also doesn't require the connection termination. This type of service is not reliable but faster than the connection oriented services.
Example : UDP
