Flow Control
Flow Control:
If there is a fast sender at one end sending data to a slow receiver, then there must be flow control mechanism to control the loss of data by slow receivers.
There are several mechanisms used for flow control such as increasing buffer size at receivers, slow down the fast sender, and so on.
Some process will not be in position to accept arbitrarily long messages.
This property leads to mechanisms for disassembling, transmitting and the reassembling messages.
