Primes

• Layered Accumulation
  • … architecture**: Dedicate a write-once medium (append-only logs, blockchain, WORM disks) to preserve layers, applying the protocol-stack discipline that Cerf and Kahn (1974) introduced in A Protocol for Packet Network Intercommunication — each layer encapsulates state that lower layers cannot retroactively rewrite.
• Layering
  • The TCP/IP model (Cerf & Kahn, 1974, extended by RFC 1122) exemplifies layering in network protocols: the Link layer handles hardware transmission (Ethernet, PPP, optical fiber), the Internet layer routes packets globally (IP, supporting both IPv4 and IPv6), the Transport layer provides end-to-end delivery guarantees (TCP for reliable ordered streams, UDP for unreliable datagrams), and the Application layer exposes services to users and applications (HTTP, SMTP, DNS, FTP, SSH, etc.)
