In TCP, after sending a certain amount of data, the sender has to wait for a confirmation, before sending more. The amount of data that can be sent before receiving a confirmation is called the "window size". This window size may vary during the transmission, depending on the quality of the link.
**The TCP transport layer protocol uses windowing and acknowledgments for reliable transfer of data. **The TCP and UDP port numbers are used by application layer protocols. **The TCP transport layer protocol provides services to direct the data packets to their destination hosts.

MEX - windowing system - was created in 1985.
The windowing is a feature of manage bandwidth of transferring data.
Layer 4 (Transport) is responsible for correction.
