Application-layer framing
Application-layer framing or application-level framing is a method of allowing an application to use its semantics for the design of its network protocols.
This procedure was first proposed by D. D. Clark and David L. Tennenhouse. It works as follows:
This procedure simplifies the quality of service negotiation and provides a simpler method of error checking.
The real-time protocol is an example of where the semantics of the real-time application are used to segment the data.
