Introduction :
A computer network is a set of computer connected together for the purpose of sharing
resources. The most common resource shared today is, connection to the internet. In computer
networks, computing devices exchange data with each other using connections (data links )
between nodes. These data links are established over cable media such as wires or optic cables,
or wireless media such as Wi-Fi. The Layering is a widely accepted structure in technique and
designing a communication system. To reduce their design complexities, networks are organized
as a series of layers, each one built on the layers below it. The communication between machines
is done by protocol i.e. a set of rules governing the exchange of data. Layering helps in proper
division of works to achieve the overall objective of proper communication. The two models are
:
1) OSI model
2) TCP/IP model
OSI Model: we require a framework called as “Model for open system interconnection (OSI)”
and normally referred as “OSI Reference model”. The ISO in 1983, developed this model as a
first step toward international standardization of protocol used in various layer. The most
common resource shared today is, connection to the internet. In computer networks, computing
devices exchange data with each other using connections (data links) between nodes. These data
links are established over cable media such as wires or optic cables, or wireless media such as
Wi-Fi. The Layering is a widely accepted structure in designing a communication system. To
reduce their design complexities, networks are organized as a series of layers, each one built on
the layers below it. The communication between machines is done by protocol i.e. a set of rules
governing the exchange of data. Layering helps in proper division of works to achieve the overall
objective of proper communication. The open system interconnection (OSI) model is a
conceptual model that characterizes and standardizes the communication function of a
telecommunication or computing system without regard to its underlying internal structure and
technology. Its goal is the interoperability of diverse communication systems with standard
communication protocols. This is a seven layer reference architecture .The model comprises of
following layers:
1) Application layer
2) Presentation layer
3) Session layer
4) Transport layer
5) Network layer
6) Data link layer
7) Physical layer
TCP/IP model: The ARPANET was a resource network sponsored by the DOD (Department of
Defence) .It eventually connected 100s of universities and government installation using leased
telephone lines. When satellite and radio network were added later, the existing protocols had
provide interworking with them, so a new reference architecture were needed .Thus, the ability
of converting multiple network together in a seamless way on of the major design goals from the
very beginning .This architecture later became known as the TCP/IP model after its two primary
protocols. The TCP/IP protocol suite was developed prior to the OSI model. Therefore, the
layers in the TCP/IP protocol suite do not exactly match those in the OSI model. The original
TCP/IP protocol suite was defined on having four host to host network, internet, transport and
application layers. Besides the OSI model another model which is in the practical use is the
TCP/IP model which is five layer model. Internet services generally support TCP/IP protocols.
The various layers are mentioned below :
1) Application layer
2) Transport layer
3) Internet layer
4) Network access layer
5) Physical layer
4) Transport layer:
Transport provides end-to-end connection and reliability .These layer decides whether
transmission should be parallel or single path. It does functions like multiplexing,
splitting or segmenting the data. This layer breaks the data into smaller units so that it can
be easily handled by network layer. The transport layer is also responsible for the
management of error correction, providing quality and reliability to the end user. This
enable the host to send and receive error corrected data, packets or message over a
network and is the network component that allows multiplexing. The function of the
transport layer are-segmentation and reassembly. This layer accepts the message from the
session layer, breaks the message into smaller units. Each of the segment produced has a
header associated with it. Services point addressing, In order to deliver the message to
correct process, transport layer header includes a type of address called service point
address or port address. Transport layer makes sure that are message is delivered to the
correct process.
5) Network layer:
The function of this layer is to deliver packets from source to destination across multiple
network links. It also take care of packet routing i.e. selection of the shortest path to
transmit the packet from the number of routers available .The sender and the receiver IP
address are placed in the header by network layer .The function of the network layer are
routing, logical addressing .Every network device has a physical address called MAC
address .The network layer protocols translates logical addresses to MAC addresses.
It makes sure the appropriate physical protocol is assigned to the data .The three main
functions of data link layer are to deal with transmission errors a well defined interface to
the network layer. The functions of data link layer are-framing, provides a way for a
sender to transmit a set of bits that are meaningful to the receiver. Physical addressing of
sender/receiver is the header of each frame. Error control provides the mechanism of
error control in which it detects and retransmits damaged or last frames. Flow control
coordinates that amount of data that can be send before receiveing acknowledgement.
Access control provide a single communication channel is shared by multiple devices
,MAC sub layer of data link layer helped to determine which devices has control over the
channel at a given time.
7) Physical layer:
It is the lowest layer of OSI model it is responsible for the actual physical connection
between the devices .The physical layer contains information in the form of bits, some
important functions of physical layer are –Bit synchronization provides the
synchronization of the bits by providing a clock. The clock controls both sender and
receiver thus providing synchronization at bit level. Physical topologies, the way in
which the different devices/nodes are arranged in a network. Transmission mode is a
function of physical layer. Physical circuits are created on the physical layer of Open
System Interconnection ( OSI ) Model. This layer is limited to the processes needed to
place the communication signal over the media and to receive signal coming from that
media.
TCP/IP Model : Transmission control protocol / Internet Protocol is the language a computer
uses to access the Internet. It consists of a suite of protocols designed to establish a network of
networks to provide a host with access to the internet. TCP/IP can also be used as a
communication protocol in a private network (an intranet or an extranet). TCP/IP is the network
model used in the current internet architecture as well. Protocols are set of rules which govern
every possible communication over a network. These protocols describe the movement of data
between the source and destination or the internet. They also offer simple naming and addressing
schemes.
Features of TCP/IP –
1) Support for a flexible architecture. Adding more machines to a network was easy.
2) The network was robust, and connections remained intact until the source and destination
machines were functioning.
Transport layer: It decides if data transmission should be on parallel path or single path. The
such as multiplexing, segmenting or splitting on the data is done by transport layer. This layer
adds header information to the data. This layer breaks the message (data) into small units so that
they are handled more efficiently by the network layer. This layer also arranges the packets to be
sent in sequence.
Application layer : It performs the function of top three layers of OSI model: Application,
Presentation and Session layer. It is responsible for mode to mode communication and controls
user user interface specifications.
Parity Analysis of Open System Interconnection reference model and Transmission Control
Protocol / Internet Protocol model :
1.Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model is a client server model , that is when
the client requests for service. It is provided by server . whereas, Open System Interconnection
reference model is a conceptual model.
2.Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model is a standard protocol used for every
network including the internet, whereas, Open System Interconnection reference model is not a
protocol but a reference model used for understanding and designing the system architecture.
Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model is a four layered model, whereas , Open
System Interconnection reference model has seven layers.
3.Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model follows vertical approach . On the
other hand , Open System Interconnection reference model supports horizontal approach .
Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model is Tangible, whereas, Open System
Interconnection reference model is not.
4.Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol model follows top to bottom approach,
whereas , Open System Interconnection reference model model follows a bottom up approach.
Conclusion: This paper is about the parity analysis of open system interconnection (OSI)
reference model and Transmission control protocol and internet protocol (TCP/IP) model. This
paper provides an overview of the open system interconnection (OSI) reference model which
defines a hierarchical architecture that logically partitions the function required to support system
-to- system communication, whereas Transmission control protocol and internet protocol
(TCP/IP) was developed by Department of Defence’s Project Research Agency (ARPA, later
DARPA)as a part of the research project of network interconnection to connect remote machines.
The comparison that came out between the two most widely used networking models for
communication that are TCP/IP and OSI model is that , that OSI is a conceptual model which is
not practically used for communication whereas the TCP/IP model is used for establishing a
connection and communicating through the network .
Concerning the above paper, we can conclude that the TCP/IP model is reliable over OSI model,
TCP/IP is used for end-to-end connection so as to transmit the data over the internet. TCP/IP is
robust, flexible, tangible and suggests how data should be sent over the web. TCP/IP model
checks whether the data has arrived in order, it has an error or not, lost packets are sent or not,
acknowledgement is received or not, etc.. In contrast , The OSI model is just a conceptual
framework to interpret how applications communicate over the network.
