In bit oriented Protocol, a flag is used to frame the bits sent. Simply put, you have a fllag (01111110) and the required bits are sent after the flag and you end the transmission again with a flag. Using this method you can send any number of bits of any length. Another important fact is the zero insertion method used. Say for example, you want to send the bit string 01111110. You cannot do this because it will be interpreted as a flag. However, by adding a zero after 5 consecutive 1's as a standard, this bit stream can be send. The transmitter sends the string as 011111010 and the receiver removes the zero after 5 consecutive 1's and stores the data as 01111110
In byte oriented protocol(character oriented protocol) the receiver considers 8 bits at a time and figuers out the relevant character. This system is used when communicating with printers and keyboards which use ASCII characters exclusively. (All the ASCII characters can be covered by 8 bits (256 characters). The main disadvantade of COP is that you cannot send 9 or 10 bits, arbitrary bits. Furthermore, in COP there are special characters - channel control characters, eg- SYN character which is used to synchronize the receiver and the transmitter. These characters cannot be transferred as data. They will be misread as control characters.

What is difference between a 'byte' and a 'byte'?
I believe you meant difference between a bit and a byte. A byte is 8 bits.
What protocols inTCP reference model is reliable connection oriented protocol that allows a byte stream orginating on one system to be delivered without error to any other system?
tcp is the transport layer of protocol this is also known as port ports have 16 bits
What is the difference between a byte and a kilobyte?
1000 bytes =1 kilobyte
What is the difference between byte and block?
2352 bytes (the size of a block)

What is the difference between a bit and a bite?
it takes about 225 bits for one byte.
What is the size of an RARP packet when the protocol is IP and the hardware is Ethernet?
28 byte
The difference between bit and byte a word and word size?
One Byte = 8 bits One Kilobyte = 1000 bytes One Megabyte = 1000 kilobytes
What is the difference between byte and word?
one octet (8-bit byte or word) so 8 bytes = 1 word
What is a difference between register and a memory location?
difference between register and memory location
Diffrerences between URAT and USART?
It is UART and USART instead of URAT and USART. The biggest difference between URAT and USART is that UART sends data byte by byte. USART sends data in blocks and can send a clock with the data.
What is the difference between character and bit?
character is an 8bit word also known as 1 byte. where as bit is referred to single bit among those 8 bit in a 1 byte (or character).
