Week 6 Modify Java Activate a Thread Server Program Assignment

Server programs are rarely implemented as non-threaded applications, even though that is how you implemented your previous server application. Servers would not be able to provide the necessary throughput unless they used threading to allow for I/O to occur concurrently with servicing client requests.

For this Assignment, you will modify your finger server program from Week 6 to use threads. The server should activate a new thread to process each incoming client request, thus allowing client requests to be processed concurrently.

To prepare:

• Start up NetBeans.
• Open your implementation of the finger protocol from Week 6.

Modify your finger server program to use threads. The server should activate a new thread to process each incoming client request, thus allowing client requests to be processed concurrently.

Save your implementation of the threaded finger server in a “.zip” file. You will also submit your paper documenting the implementation and analysis of your server separately.

Submit your zip file to the
Assignment 2 Part 1 – Week 7 submission link and your Word document to the
Assignment 2 Part 2 Turnitin – Week 7 submission link.

Please do not put your name or “student name” anywhere on the documents.
