Hi, I need to create an application(using 2 emulators) in which: Each emulator serves as a server and a client.
Server starts as a service in background. On request by the client, I have to transfer the contents of a JSON file from 1 emulator's server to other emulator's client.. Can you please guide me in the usage of how to use port numbers(as the IP addresses of both instances of the emulator is the same)?
No sure that will work if both emulators have the same IP address.
I'd try running server & client programs in the same emulator. For the server use any port number between 1025 & 65535 that is not already used, ports below 1024 are generally reserve in linux/unix system & need su rights.

It's sort of dubious as to why you would do a research project using
an HTTP server in Android, what you probably want is cross device
messaging, in which case your purposes would be much better served
using GCM

I want to communicate between n Android phones. I want each to behave as clients and do some operation one after another updating a common file. For this, I need each phone to register its IP to a server(so that a service can be started). I was wondering if this can be tested using emulators(as their IP's are same). Or is C2DM the only choice?
HTTP are so wrong to do this so I don't know where to start. Use XMPP instead. It is designed for multiple clients talking to each other. No, it isn't a chat protocol. Jabber is just one application on top of XMPP. Take a look at pubsub how to do exactly what you want to do. And as a bonus you will get security fixed for you and multiple implementations. Don't use a hammer when you need a screwdriver.
