Xpress Transport Protocol
<networking, protocol> (XTP) A transport layer protocol for high-speed
networks promoted by the XTP Forum. XTP provides protocol options for error
control, flow control, and rate control. Instead of separate protocols for each
type of communication, XTP controls packet exchange patterns to produce
different models, e.g. reliable datagrams, transactions, unreliable streams, and
reliable multicast connections.

Contrast with Transmission Control Protocol. XTP does not employ congestion
avoidance algorithms.
