Transport Layer

[!NOTE] This module explores the core principles of the Transport Layer, deriving solutions from first principles and hardware constraints to build world-class, production-ready expertise. We will examine the OS kernel’s role in multiplexing, the memory overhead of connection state, and the mathematical intuition behind congestion control algorithms.
