Chat application is a platform of communication which provides real time transmission of information in the form of text messages or files.The following chat application does not use internet for its operation.It requires all the computers to be connected in a single network, where one of the computers is considered as servers and all others as clients.Every user needs to make a request to the server using the server's IP address and port number.The sender can later select the intended receiver from the list of online users.The sender can also chose to broadcast the message to all the online users.The user can also chose to share various files in different file formats.I. IV. CONCLUSIONThe intranet chat application incorporates the client-server model for communication with each other.This communication occurs through sockets using the TCP/IP protocol.The TCP/IP protocol is used for transferring the data is a connection oriented protocol and thus ensures a reliable transfer of data.The data transferred is in the form of text messages and files that reach the target client connected in the network.About 50 clients can be connected at a time in the network.A short message(less than 10 strings) takes less than 1 sec to reach the receiver.Message can be sent successfully over 2.4GHz bandwidth of local hotspot (LAN).V. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would express my gratitude towards my mentor, Dr. R. C. Jaiswal for being of great support and guiding me through the research.He gave this paper the insight and the expertise it needed for making it a presentable one.His guidance, constructive criticism and encouragement at various stages
