Depends on which host you want.
Server :

    select machine
    from v$session
    where sid = 1;

Client (current) :

    select machine
    from v$session
    where audsid = sys_context('USERENV', 'SESSIONID');

Since V$SESSION is not accessible to anybody, you may wish to create views (as SYS) on it and grant SELECT on these views to PUBLIC.
