Which aproach is best ?

[Jigar Naik]

Hi,
I am given an assignment on Socket Programming and the functionality is like below.
The communication happens between two machine infinite. Lets say Machine A and Machine B.
A sends message to B and B reads message and send back the acknowledgement to the A. and this happens infinite. One more rule is there. No of messages which A will send in 1 second is configurable.
Message length is also fix which A and B sends to each other.

Which approach is best for the above scenario keeping performance in mind. And After every second I need to display below statics on the console.

Max A-B communication Time
Max B-A communication Time
Max A-B-A Communication Time
Avg Time A-B in previous Second
Avg Time B-A in previous Second
Avg Time A-B-A in previous Second

You forgot to provide a list of "approaches" for us to choose from. Without that, my response would be that the best approach would be to write working code. This assignment isn't especially complex and there really aren't a whole lot of radically different ways to do it.
