Focuses on the design of network protocols, which are used in the transfer of information from one computer system to another. A typical protocol will allow the computers to identify each other, include information about the time the data is sent, the rate at which information is sent, and an error checking capability. Some of the more advanced protocols allow also for encryption and other methods of secure data transfer. The IP (Internet Protocol )is widely used, although more and more additions and changes are made each year to include the ability to process multimedia, for example. Designing these protocols is an optimization problem, and the best design will depend on the needs of the network.
