LAN Supervising and Controlling Through Android Device

Abstract: Nowadays android phones are used for various purposes that are used in our daily life [1]. Similarly android phones can be used for supervising and regulating computers over a LAN network. We will use a Wi-Fi network to make a connection between a mobile phone and a personal Computer through servlet socket programming in java. The Wi-Fi network will work as a platform for sending and receiving commands and messages between the server and the client. Here the android phone will be used as a server and the computer as a client. The client program sends some data as a command to computer�s communication port. There is a server program in computer which will read the data from the communication port and executes the commands present in the data.
