Abstract

One of the most popular transport protocols—Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)—has a long history. The first document describing TCP protocol in early stages was published in 1974. Since then, TCP specification was changed several times, and finally in 1981 was standardised by RFC 793 (Postel, 1981). Two years later TCP, together with Internet Protocol (IP), became the official protocol suite of the Internet. In the same year the first widely available implementation of TCP in the 4.2 BSD operating system was built.
