what is protocol ?

[ashish123]

protocol is the working on server.

[noritz143]

Imagine the many communicating in the world and the number of different languages they mostly use, the number of different machines they use, the number of different ways in which they transmit data and the different software they use.

[nish009]

A uniform set of rules that enable two devices to connect and transmit data to one another. Protocols determine how data are transmitted between computing devices and over networks. They define issues such as error control and data compression methods. The protocol determines the following: type of error checking to be used, data compression method (if any), how the sending device will indicate that it has finished a message and how the receiving device will indicate that it has received the message. Internet protocols include TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol), HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), FTP (File Transfer Protocol), and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).

Protocol is a specific set of communication rules. That rule which guides how an action should be performed, particularly in the field of diplomacy and that allow two electronic things to connect to and exchange information with another. There are so many protocols, each one have a different type of works.

[watson123]

IP protocol defines a set of rules governing the way computers use IP packets to send data over the Internet or any other IP-based network. It also defines addressing in IP

[pooja123]

Protocol : Set of rules in transmission is called protocol.

[adison]

protocal is set of rules in which two devices connect each other and transmit data.it defines how data are transmitted between different devices over the network.it basically check the error.

[derrickhenry]

In simplest words, protocol is a set of rules used to govern communication on the internet. They exist at several levels in a telecommunication connection.

[james smit]

In computer science the word algorithm is a synonym for the word procedure so a protocol is to communications what an algorithm is to mathematics.

An agreed-upon format for transmitting data between two devices. The protocol determines the following:
the type of error checking to be used

data compression method, if any

how the sending device will indicate that it has finished sending a message

how the receiving device will indicate that it has received a message

There are a variety of standard protocols from which programmers can choose. Each has particular advantages and disadvantages; for example, some are simpler than others, some are more reliable, and some are faster.

From a user's point of view, the only interesting aspect about protocols is that your computer or device must support the right ones if you want to communicate with other computers. The protocol can be implemented either in hardware or in software.

[Robbin07]

In simple protocol is the set of rules of computer algorithm.

[jordenstive]

By description, this is a protocol designed for transfer of time around a computer network. Protocols are specific to the features of the source, network and destination of the message.

[johnanne]

A uniform set of rules that enable twice devices to attach and transmit knowledge to at least one another. Protocols confirm how knowledge are transmitted between computing devices and over networks. They outline problems like error management and knowledge compression ways.
