Word: Zmodem

Def: A file transfer protocol which transmits data between modems in blocks of 512 byte.It is fast because it does not wait for positive acknowledgement (ACK) after each block of data, but will resend a block if it receives a negative acknowledgement (NAK).If a file transfer is interrupted, Zmodem can resume the transfer later and send only the part of the file that was not yet sent, which can save a lot of time.Zmodem is an advancement over Xmodem and Ymodem.
