1. GSM Protocol Stack Shrish Mammattva Bajpai

2. What is Protocol Stack ? A protocol stack (sometimes communications stack) is a particular software implementation of a computer networking protocol suite. The terms are often used interchangeably. Strictly speaking, the suite is the definition of the protocols, and the stack is the software implementation of them. In Windows the TCP/IP stack is implemented by the Winsock DLL.

3. What is Protocol Stack ? The term stack also refers to the actual software that processes the protocols. So, for example, programmers sometimes talk about loading a stack, which means to load the software required to use a specific set of protocols.
