Popis: Communication is an essential part of human existence which enables us reach friends and relatives at distant or different geographical locations and boundaries. This communication is however based on certain rules and procedures without which communication would be unsuccessful. Protocol defines a set of rules that enables communication with 99.99 efficiency and effectiveness. Therefore one protocol that enables real time communication between devices and computers is the User Datagram protocol located in the transport section of the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model. On other hand, UDP has not performed well in the transport of short messages between devices especially when same messages are sent to different devices and ports through Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and sockets that enable programmers to harness the full power of transport protocol. Therefore this paper seeks to identify the various limitations of the UDP and proposes a new UDP protocol known as UDP-RT, and that is User Datagram Protocol for Real Time communication. This protocol is an extension of UDP that is robust and has the capacity to manage and control message communication in real time that ensures the best delivery and security at all times and also proposes reliable protocol UDP over UDP protocol layer that gains one millisecond average round trip time (RTT)
