The transport layer manages packing and unpacking of data, the delivery of packets and checking for errors in the data once it arrives.

What are the five layers in the Internetprotocol stack?

The Internet protocol stack, often referred to as the TCP/IP model, consists of five layers: the application layer, transport layer, internet layer, link layer, and physical layer. The application layer handles high-level protocols and user interfaces, while the transport layer ensures reliable data transfer between hosts. The internet layer is responsible for routing packets across networks, and the link layer manages the physical transmission of data over network interfaces. The physical layer deals with the actual hardware and transmission mediums used to transmit data.


Which OSI layer does error handling take place?

The data link layer (2nd layer), the network layer (3rd layer) and the transport layer (4th layer) each handle their own specific errors, which should prevent errors in both directions. Any untrapped errors will result in a corrupt transmission which may or may not be handled by the appropriate endpoint, dependant upon the protocol.


Why transistor have 4 wire?

The transistor is a three layer (or two junction) device, emitter, base, and collector (or other designations for variations such as FET's). Each layer is connected to a terminal. Three layers - three terminals.


Which transport layer protocol provides low overhead and would be used for applications which do not require reliable data delivery?

UDP


What are 7 layers of software engineering?

The computer science discipline concerned with developing large applications. Software engineering covers not only the technical aspects of building software system, but also management issues, such as directing programming teams, scheduling, and budgeting.uter
