Computer Program Development Specification Transmission Control Program (TCP). Revision 3.

Abstract

This document provides the functional specification of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) as used in the AUTODIN II packet switched network. TCP performs the mechanics of establishing, maintaining, and terminating a virtual connection through the AUTODIN II system. TCP controls the flow of data so that the users on either end of the virtual connection appear to be communicating via dedicated circuit. This document also contains many examples of the TCP design and implementation in the AUTODIN II Multiple Channel Control Unit. (Author)
