The aim of this project is to develop from scratch or from existing libraries a network application.

Students will work in groups of 4 or 5 people. Students have to organize their work by themselves, look for any documentation or existing code on the Web, and integrate independent parts into an operational prototype. The software will be developed in JAVA. Besides the teamwork aspect, you will learn how to develop a graphical user interface, to write multithreaded applications and basic/advanced notions of network programming (Socket, JAVA NIO, Client/Server paradigm, ...). you will use a Integrated Development Environment (Eclipse/Netbeans), a version control system (Subversion) and network tools in order to test your network application traffic. Students will be assigned mentors to help with their project.
They will have to choose among a list of projects : SIP phone, IRC server, instant messaging client.
