From Wikipedia:

Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is an application layer protocol that facilitates communication in the form of text. The chat process works on a client/server networking model.

Clients

Servers

Bouncers

An IRC bouncer stays connected to IRC servers so clients can disconnect without missing messages or losing the session.

Gateways

An IRC gateway recieves messages through other chat networks (e.g. |XMPP) and forwards them through IRC.
