communication protocol
a communication protocol is a set of rules for exchanging information over a network. in a protocol stack (also see the osi model), each protocol leverages the services of the protocol layer below it, until the lowest layer controls the hardware which sends information across the media. the use of protocol layering is today ubiquitous across the field of computer networking. an important example of a protocol stack is http (the world wide web protocol) running over tcp over ip (the internet protocols) over ieee 802.11 (the wi-fi protocol). this stack is used between the wireless router and the home user's personal computer when the user is surfing the web.

bullet::::- ntcip application level — application standards define the rules and procedures for exchanging information data. the rules may include definitions of proper grammar and syntax of a single statement, as well as the sequence of allowed statements. this is similar to combining words and phrases to form a sentence, or a complete thought, and defining the rules for greeting each other and exchanging information. these standards are roughly equivalent to the session, presentation and application layers of the osi model.
