Data Communication - cs601 Power Point Slides Lecture 03

This document discusses key aspects of data communication and protocols. It defines protocols as a set of rules governing communication. Protocols determine what is communicated, how it is communicated, and when. Protocols have elements like syntax, semantics, and timing. The document also describes protocol architecture, with structured modules implementing communication functions instead of a single module. Finally, it outlines characteristics of protocols like being direct or indirect, monolithic or structured, symmetric or asymmetric, and standard or nonstandard.
