Abstract
With the emergence of high-speed LAN/MAN/WANs, traditional protocol stacks used in communications networks and end systems must be examined and new ones explored, so as to take full advantage of the large bandwidth available. Protocol stacks providing data transfer functions must minimize processing overheads and be amenable to hardware implementation. An overview of the problems to be solved, the approaches that can be used to increase protocol speeds, and current activities is presented
