Pub/Sub architecture

Question

I try to write a pub/sub system ( client and server side ) , where client receives regular updates ( like heartbeat, message control ) and can issue command to server ( subscribe to some source , .... ).

What would be a good way to do that? I have already a server implementing a threadpool to manage incoming client connection.

I was wondering how to handle the fact the both side of the connection can read or write data in the NetworkStream . Furthermore more of my clients will actually issue very few commands to the server ( mostly to subscribe to some data and then just get regular updates ). I try try to use plain socket,tcpclient,tcplistner ( i ll see later about WCF )

Thx Dave

Well, i was most interested in building my own version using plain sockets in order to get a deeper knowledge of the underlying block and architecture choice. — Dave, Jun 10 '09 at 16:28

Or something free, like pubsub using MSMQ and WCF.

Try NServiceBus, MassTransit or Rhino Service Bus

There's actually some good stuff about the three of them on SO (nServiceBus, Rhino Service Bus, MassTransit - Videos, Demos, Learning Resources)
