Abstract


The desire for error-free communication is paramount for both senders and receivers of messages. However, errors frequently occur in networks due to various factors, leading to the loss or alteration of message content. This issue is a significant concern for both the parties involved in communication and network providers. In response to this challenge, we propose a model for error control that aims to reduce transmission errors in packet-switched Wide Area Networks (WANs). By leveraging advanced techniques, this model seeks to enhance the reliability and efficiency of data transmission, ultimately ensuring that messages are delivered accurately and promptly.
