I'd say, don't overwhelm the original ask-er. Let him explain this problem statement again.
So far we know he wants a client server.
Rashid,
Do you want thin client (like web based) or thick like X11 or Java or VB client?
Do you want the data processing be on the server (more reliable but slower), or do you want some of the processing on the client (faster but more complex)?

things are updated on the client, and at some later date updated on
the main server and all data inconsistencies are automagically taken
care of.
OTOH, if all the OP wanted was to just have plain old client - server
architecture, yeah, that's built right in to psql / libpq...
