work together to provide communication. The software work so well that it hides
the details of under laying hardware and provides the illusion of a seamless
system.
The
internet an open system, because the
specification needed to build TCP/IP software or use of the internet are available
to everyone. Researchers who devised the internet published technical
information in the series of reports that describe the internet and the TCP/IP
software it uses. For historical reasons, each document in the series is
labeled request for the comments.
