TCP is, as it's name says, a Tranmission Control Protocol.

It is one of the most used protocols in the internet along with IP.

The main difference with the UDP protocol is that TCP chanks and grants reliability in the delivered data, while UDP doesn't.

More information about it can be fount at Wikipedia's TCP article and at Wikipedia's TCP/IP article.
