Today, messages are first broken down into small fixed bundles of data. The bundles include information for directing it to the right address and for checking transmission errors along with the data. This method is more efficient since the bundles of data originating at one source will be routed through many paths and networks before being reassembled into the original message when they reach their destinations.

Which of the following is a method of slicing digital messages into parcels called packets, sending the packets along different communication paths as they become available, and then reassembling the packets once they arrive?
