Experiential Learning of Networking Technologies: Understanding TCP States – Part 1

Ram P. Rustagi, CSE Dept, KSIT and Viraj Kumar, Divecha Centre for Climate Change , IISc Experiential Learning, Understanding TCP States - 1, Volume 2-Issue 4 0

Authors   Ram P. Rustagi CSE Department, KSIT Viraj Kumar CAOS - Indian Institute of Science Abstract   The transport layer TCP in a network stack provides end-to-end reliable delivery to the application layer. A reliable connection implies that data will be delivered in-order, error-free and without loss or data duplication. Developers will occasionally face situations where TCP

Understanding Transport Layer Basics – Experiential Learning Series

Ram P. Rustagi, CSE Dept, KSIT and Viraj Kumar, Divecha Centre for Climate Change , IISc Experiential Learning, Vol 2 Issue 03 0

Authors   Ram P. Rustagi Professor, CSE Dept, KSIT Viraj Kumar Professor, CAOS, IISc   Abstract  The transport layer in a network stack provides end-to-end connectivity to the application layer. In the internet stack, there are two main transport layer implementations in use: TCP (which provides reliable service delivery) and UDP (which does not). Unfortunately, many people misconstrue

Experiential Learning of Networking Technologies

Ram P. Rustagi, CSE Dept, KSIT and Viraj Kumar, Divecha Centre for Climate Change , IISc Experiential Learning, issue 1- 2017 0

Authors   Ram P. Rustagi Professor, CSE Dept, KSIT Viraj Kumar Professor, CAOS, IISC   Abstract At the undergraduate level, most Computer Networking curricula aim to familiarize students with key networking technologies and standards, with an emphasis on breadth rather than depth of understanding. This is detrimental to students in two ways. First, students obtain a
