An Application Architecture for Interactive Communication over the World Wide Web

Abstract

This paper describes a client-server application architecture for interactive communication over the World Wide Web (WWW). The clients were Java applets running in web browsers. The server was a Java application running on a Solaris workstation. Each client requested a socket connection to the server to transfer data about user input. The data included heterogeneous data types for graphic and text information. Multiple clients could connect to the central server simultaneously. The server processed input streams from clients and wrote to output streams which were then transferred to other designated clients. This client-server architecture was proven to be economical and effective for rapid interactive web communication.
