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.)

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
