From the Paper:

"In Information Technology (IT), protocols are agreed-upon formats for transmitting data between two devices (Webopedia, 2003). They determine the type of error checking to be used as well as the method, if any at all, of data compression used. The manner in which the sending device indicates that it has finished sending a message and how the receiving device will indicate that it has received such a message are two more common situations resolved by protocols."
