From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   User Datagram Protocol
  
      (UDP) {Internet} {standard} {network layer},
      {transport layer} and {session layer} {protocols} which
      provide simple but {unreliable} {datagram} services.   UDP is
      defined in {STD 6}, {RFC 768}.   It adds a {checksum} and
      additional process-to-process addressing information [to
      what?].   UDP is a {connectionless protocol} which, like {TCP},
      is layered on top of {IP}.
  
      UDP neither guarantees delivery nor does it require a
      connection.   As a result it is lightweight and efficient, but
      all error processing and retransmission must be taken care of
      by the {application program}.
  
      {Unix manual page}: udp(4).

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   user identifier
  
      1. (Or "uid", "user id") A number or name
      which is unique to a particular user of a computer or group of
      computers which share user information.   The {operating
      system} uses the uid to represent the user in its data
      structures, e.g. the owner of a file or process, the person
      attempting to access a system resource etc.
  
      A user database, e.g. {Unix}'s /etc/passwd file or {NIS}, maps
      the uid to other information about that user such as their
      {user name}, {password}, {home directory} and real name.
  
      2. {user name}.
