Network Programming-C#

The document discusses network programming and protocols. It defines TCP and UDP, explaining that TCP provides reliable data transmission while UDP does not guarantee delivery. It also introduces the client-server model and provides code samples in C# for a basic client-server application using TCP that allows the client to send a message to the server.

Network Programming

Definiation:
Computers running on the Internet communicate to each
other using either the Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP) or the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), as this
diagram illustrates:

Protocol:

Set of Rules to perform an operation

In this Context:

protocols define format, order of msgs sent and received


among network entities, and actions taken on msg
transmission, receipt

TCP Protocol:
Definition: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a
connection-based protocol that provides a reliable
flow of data between two computers.

It provides a point-to-point channel for applications that


require reliable communications. The Hypertext Transfer
Protocol (HTTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), and Telnet
are all examples of applications that require a reliable
communication channel

UDP Protocol:
Error! Use the Home tab to apply
Pg. 3 Heading 1 to the text that you want to

Definition: UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a protocol


that ends independent packets of data, called
datagrams, from one computer to another with no
guarantees about arrival. UDP is not connection-based
like TCP.

The UDP protocol provides for communication that is


not guaranteed between two applications on the
network

It sends independent packets of data,


called datagrams, from one application to another
