Distributed Computing, M. Liu The Client-Server Model – part II Connectionless server vs. connection-oriented server Connectionless vs. Connection-Oriented Server A connectionless server Uses a connectionless IPC API (e.g., connectionless datagram socket) Sessions with concurrent clients can be interleaved. A connection-oriented server Uses a connection-oriented IPC API (e.g. stream-mode socket ) Sessions with concurrent clients can only be sequential unless the server is threaded. EchoServer1 (Connectionless--UDP) public class EchoServer1 { public static void main(String[] args) { … // instantiates a datagram socket for both sending // and receiving data MyServerDatagramSocket mySocket = new MyServerDatagramSocket(serverPort); while (true) { // forever loop DatagramMessage request = mySocket.receiveMessageAndSender(); String message = request.getMessage( ); mySocket.sendMessage(request.getAddress( ), request.getPort( ), message); } //end while Concurrent client sessions with EchoServer1 EchoServer2 (Connection-oriented--TCP) ServerSocket myConnectionSocket = new ServerSocket(serverPort); while (true) { // forever loop MyStreamSocket myDataSocket = new MyStreamSocket ( myConnectionSocket.accept( ) ); boolean done = false; while (!done) { message = myDataSocket.receiveMessage( ); if ((message.trim()).equals (endMessage)){ myDataSocket.close( ); done = true; } //end if else { myDataSocket.sendMessage(message); } //end else } //end while !done } //end while forever Two Consecutive client sessions-- EchoServer2 Iterative servers Vs. Concurrent servers Concurrent Server A connection-oriented server can be threaded so that it can serve multiple clients concurrently/simultaneously. Such a server is said to be a conc
