Java's socket-based communications
allow applications to view networking as if it were file I/O, a program
can read and write to a socket as if it were a file. Java provides
stream (TCP) and datagram sockets (UDP).
Stream sockets : a process establishes a connection to another process, while the connection is in place data flows between the processes in continuous streams. Stream sockets are said to provide a connection-oriented service (TCP).
Datagram sockets : individual packets of information are transmitted, these packets are sent via a connectionless service, this means that packets can be lost, duplicated, out of order when they arrive at the destination. This means that extra programming is required at the client end to sort out these problems. more...
