As you can use Java on both platforms, what's the problem? Start from here: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_networking.htm[^].

yes exactly what i've done is similar to this link : http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_networking.htm[^]

but the difference that i made:
1- the name of the server is "local host" and the port is 2323
2- the client on the android studio simulator

but the connection doesn't work

Come on, you cannot "host" anything on localhost by definition:
