Thread: Java chatting program implementing socket logic

In our application,We are thinking to develop a project implementing networking (socket programming) and multi threading…


Is it possible to develop a chat application with the following requirements:
1) number of clients need to communicate with the server
(many-to-one).
2) number of experts need to communicate with the server(many-to-one).
3) the server has to exchange the messages(text, voice, video) between connected clients and experts(LIVE SUPPORT) (one-to-one).
4) Further the experts must view the connected clients list in their frame ..

…Is it possible to achieve this requirement using these technologies……….. If no, then which technology do you think supports the requirement??????
Thanking you in advance !!!!!!!

hi sivakrishna,
i think, it is possible with a distibuted environment , i mean servlet's technology and multithreading concept.
