Sharing a TCP Connection

I have an embedded processor that opens a TCP socket to a program running on a web server and dumps real time measurements on to the server. I am trying to design an applet that opens a TCP connection to this program and thus gain access to the information dumped by the embedded system. This works fine for a single applet. But when I try doing it with several applets at a time, I run into trouble since all these applets try to read from the socket to the processor.

My question is how do you share a single open TCP connection for reading?

Thanks in advance.
