Hi Hemant,
I dont know how socket programming is done on windows side. On Unix side I can tell you some things, you will have to carry on. You will have to go thru some books for more info
socket is a system call in unix, by which you can open a file descriptor at the system level for reading from it or writing to it. Using this file descriptor, you can communicate to other file descriptors ( as in windows !!!)
This is all about inter process communications. A process on unix can talk to a process on windows, thru the IPC tools like socket. For unix sockets I can suggest you to have a look at stevens unix programming. Also on the net you can get a lot of sample socket program

socket-event
socket-event(8) System Manager's Manual socket-event(8)
NAME
socket - event signalling that a socket connection has been made
SYNOPSIS
socket PROTO=PROTO PORT=PORT ADDR=ADDR
socket PROTO=PROTO PATH=PATH
DESCRIPTION
The socket event is generated by the upstart-socket-bridge(8) daemon when a socket connection is made whose details match the socket event
condition and environment specified in a jobs start on or stop on stanza.
When an incoming connection is detected, the file descriptor representing the socket is passed to the job in question to allow it to
accept(2) the connection. Additionally, the environment variable UPSTART_JOB will contain the name of the event ("socket") and the environ-
ment variable UPSTART_FDS will contain the number of the file descriptor corresponding to the listening socket.
EXAMPLES
Internet socket
Start web server when first client connects from localhost:
start on socket PROTO=inet PORT=80 ADDR=127.0.0.1
Local socket
start on socket PROTO=unix PATH=/var/run/.s.pgsql.1234
Abstract socket
start on socket PROTO=unix PATH=@/at/upstart/example
