Advances in operating system

Laboratory Work:

(The following programs can be executed on any available and suitable platform)

1. Design, develop and execute a program using any thread library to create the number of threads specified by the user; each thread independently generates a random integer as an upper limit, and then computes and prints the number of primes less than or equal to that upper limit along with that upper limit.

2. Rewrite above program such that the processes instead of threads are created and the number of child processes created is fixed as two. The program should make use of kernel timer to measure and print the real time, processor time, user space time and kernel space time for each process.

3. Design, develop and implement a process with a producer thread and a consumer thread which make use of a bounded buffer (size can be prefixed at a suitable value) for communication. Use any suitable synchronization construct

. 4. Design, develop, and execute a program to solve a system of n linear equations using Successive Over-relaxation method and n processes which use Shared Memory API.

1. Design, develop, and execute a program to demonstrate the use of RPC.
