Chapter 5. NDC Protocols
The advent of NDC made communication protocols the essential underpinning of computing models. As all computing models, regardless of theoretical equivalence, must recognize and adjust to the implications and realities of communication, communication protocols must form part of the basis for any computing model.
Datacom protocols are the essence of the Internet. Understanding datacom at a rudimentary level should be as important to NDC developers as any language, development environment, or deployment platform consideration.
Conceptual Background
The Church-Turing thesis states that all computing models, known or unknown, are effectively equivalent. What this means is that no matter which theoretical computing model you may ...
