# SteadyState-Detector

A Java-based project demonstrating socket programming and multi-threaded server architecture.
Application of this project is detecting when a time series signal has reached steady state.

## Overview

This is a practice project to gain familiarity with communicating via network sockets as well as multi-threading from a server perspective.
This augments my experience with multi-threading primarily from a numerical calculations' perspective.

## Key Features

- **Socket Programming**: Implementation of client-server communication via network sockets
- **Multi-threaded Server**: Handling multiple client connections simultaneously
- **Java Implementation**: Developed entirely in Java to showcase proficiency in the language

## Technical Highlights

This project provided experience with:
- Creating and managing socket connections
- Implementing thread management for server applications
- Handling concurrent client communications
- Error handling in networked applications
- Safe memory access in multi-threaded code in Java (through mutex like wrapper class)

## Future Improvements

- Add more robust error handling
- Implement more rigorous approaches for detecting steady-state of time series.
