Abstract

Components in cyberspace interact by the exchange of messages that transport the data that must be shared by the components. The messages flow across communication channels according to the rules of the chosen communication protocol. The payload of a message, i.e., the user data in the message, is not modified during transport.

“…with electronic communication , what one writes in a moment, eternity will not erase.”

—Kent Alan Robinson
