Abstract : It is necessary to design network protocols that can incorporate diverse technologies because technology constantly evolves. An important aspect of diversity is the maximum packet size supported by each network technology. The Internet Protocol (IP) successes to support the diversity. IP's solution to the use of different maximum packet sizes is to split datagrams that do not fit into the packet size of the link to be traversed, and to coalesce the pieces (fragments) at the receiving node.

Abstract : As Internet and the web are extremely vulnerable against various sorts of threats, therefore, there is an increasing demand for securing web services. The web is fundamentally a client/server application running over Internet and TCP/IP intranets, hence, security of the network traffic between the web browser and servers is a basic issue for achieving web security in order to prevent any tampers or any intruders that want to alter or read any information; this is achieved using SSL (Socket Secure Layer).
