  2. Berkeley sockets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_sockets

    A Berkeley socket is an application programming interface (API) for Internet domain sockets and Unix domain sockets, used for inter-process communication (IPC). It is commonly implemented as a library of linkable modules. It originated with the 4.2BSD Unix operating system, which was released in 1983.

    It was developed at the University of California, Berkeley, designed by Thomas Anderson, and is used by numerous schools around the world. Originally written in C++ for MIPS, Nachos runs as a user-process on a host operating system. A MIPS simulator executes the code for any user programs running on top of the Nachos operating system.

  4. Network socket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_socket

    Development of application programs that utilize this API is called socket programming or network programming. Internet socket APIs are usually based on the Berkeley sockets standard. In the Berkeley sockets standard, sockets are a form of file descriptor, due to the Unix philosophy that "everything is a file", and the analogies between sockets ...

    Network programming traditionally covers different layers of OSI/ISO model (most of application-level programming belongs to L4 and up). The table below contains some examples of popular protocols belonging to different OSI/ISO layers, and popular APIs for them.

  7. Berkeley Software Distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Software_Distribution

    Berkeley's Unix was the first Unix to include libraries supporting the Internet Protocol stacks: Berkeley sockets. A Unix implementation of IP's predecessor, the ARPAnet's NCP, with FTP and Telnet clients, had been produced at the University of Illinois in 1975, and was available at Berkeley.

  8. STREAMS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streams_(networking_API)

    In computer networking, STREAMS is the native framework in Unix System V for implementing character device drivers, network protocols, and inter-process communication.In this framework, a stream is a chain of coroutines that pass messages between a program and a device driver (or between a pair of programs).

  9. Talk:Berkeley sockets - Wikipedia

    Only Windows gets this wrong. Should non-standard terminology be used when writing about socket programming, because someone failed to correctly implement the standard we're writing about? bind() is used on the server side, and associates a socket descriptor with a socket address structure, i.e. a specified local port number and IP address.
