Network Programming in C#

This case study by Irfan Rizvi focuses on network programming in C# using sockets. Sockets provide a medium of communication between two applications, whether those applications reside on the same computer, two different computers on a local network, or two computers connected to the Internet. Throughout the article, Rizvi leads you through a sample client/server application to demonstrate how socket programming works, covering such topics as the System.Net Namespace and I/O streams along the way.
