datagrams

In general, the term packet applies to any message formatted as a packet, while the term ***datagram*** is generally reserved for packets that are not transmitted reliably. Reliable delivery is independent of whether or not the network can detect transmission errors in packets: in a datagram network, damaged packets could be discarded without notifying the sender or receiver.

Definitions of "datagram" on the Web:

* The unit transmitted between a pair of Internet modules. The Internet Protocol provides for transmitting blocks of data, called datagrams, from sources to destinations.
www.netserv.ch/glossary.html

* A self-contained data packet carrying its own address information so it can be independently routed from the source to the destination computer without reliance on earlier exchanges between the source and destination computer and the transporting network.
www.iarchive.com/_library/terminology/d.htm

* a packet of information and delivery data that is routed on a network.
www.wrightcolorgraphics.com/d.htm

* A datagram is a discrete package of data and headers which contain addresses (which is the basic unit of transmission across an IP network). You might also hear this called a `packet'.
www.linuxdocs.org/HOWTOs/Net-HOWTO/c2524.html

* the Unit of transfer at the lowest level of the Internet.
www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/jon/book/node172.html

* Message routing method used in packet switching where every packet is transferred independently from the previous packet in the same message
www.concelsys.com/APR_Glossary.htm

* (network) A packet transport mode where packets are routed independently and may follow different paths, thus there is no guarantee of sequence delivery. See also VC.
