• java -jar Server.jar 4444 singleThread

• For Multi-threaded mode, use following command: parameters:

• java -jar Server.jar 4444 multiThread This command starts server on Port 4444

• In multithreaded mode server creates a new thread for each new client. Once a new thread is assigned to the client, servers keeps listening on the same port for more incoming connections.

• Client GUI is built with Java and being platform-independent, it can run on any system (Linux, Windows, Mac). To run the client software, you can just double click the jar file: Client.jar…. or You can run it through the terminal with following command:

• java -jar Client.jar

•  In the GUI, first enter the address of server (ex. 0.0.0.0) and the port number (ex. 4444)

•  Click on “Connect” button to connect to the server. As soon as you connect to the server, the file list from the server will be displayed.

•  To download a file, select the file from the file-list and Click on “Download” button.

-For all the RPCs, the parameters need to be specified the Text Box provided at the bottom of the GUI.

•  CALCULATE_PI: This button will fetch the calculated value of Pi with 100000 iterations (based on Leibniz formula for π), from the server and display it in the result textbox.

•  ADD (i , j ): specify the parameters i and j as 2 comma separated values, in the textbox. Ex. 2,3

• All the element in a row should be separated by a “space”.
• All rows should be separated by a “comma”.
• Each Matrix should be separated by a “Semicolon”.
• Ex. For two 3x3 matrices: 5 2 4,6 4 9,1 8 6;4 2 3,5 4 1,8 6 9

• This Matrix Multiplication supports any number of matrices.

• The File-syncing thread runs in the background and checks for any newly added or recently modified file in the Client’s home directory and syncs it with the server.

Please note that, the file-syncing operation is scheduled to run every 10 seconds. Also, the file-syncing feature will only be available for the server running in Multi-Threaded mode.
