Suppose we are dealing with a set of 4 processes P = {P1, P2, P3, P4} that are expressed by the following precedence relation: ⇒: {(P3, P4), (P1, P2), (P2, P4)} Show how you can use semaphores to enforce these constraints (i.e. the precedence relation ⇒). Recall that semaphores have two operations, P() and V() which decrement and increment the semaphore respectively. Also recall that semaphores can put the process to sleep under certain circumstances (which I hope that you remember). Note: This means showing when the P and V operations will be called on each semaphore (for any process which uses them).

Generate a BLP lattice–structured system where the objects and subjects are appropriately levelledto give access consistent with the access control matrix below. You need to describe the process bywhich you obtain your lattice. R and W correspond, respectively, to read and append. You are touse only the mandatory BLP rules, and a default allow in place of the discretionary rule. Be sure toadd a level as necssary to ensure this is a lattice.

In its current iteration, does this backing representation, which is just a two-dimensional singly linked list, have any advantages or disadvantages? Explain with regard to the implementation, performance, and the consumption of memory in general, as well as in contrast to a two-dimensional dynamic sequence implementation that makes use of two dimensions and is based on a linked list.
Implement in C programming language: Question 2 Write a c program that will generate the safe sequence of process execution for the situation given below:(Use Banker’s Algorithm). Note: The code can be implemented in several different ways, but make sure the parameter remains the same as shown below. n = 6; // Number of processes m = 4; // Number of resources int alloc[6][4] = { { 0, 1, 0, 3 }, // P0 // Allocation Matrix { 2, 0, 0, 3 }, // P1 { 3, 0, 2, 0 }, // P2 { 2, 1, 1, 5 }, // P3 { 0, 0, 2, 2 }, // P4 {1, 2 , 3, 1 } }; //P5 int max[6][4] = { { 6, 4, 3, 4 }, // P0 // MAX Matrix { 3, 2, 2, 4 }, // P1 { 9, 1, 2, 6 }, // P2 { 2, 2, 2, 8 }, // P3 { 4, 3, 3, 7 }, // P4 { 6, 2 , 6, 5 } }; //P5 int avail[4] = { 2, 2, 2, 1 };…

In a bank, customers wait in a queue (q0) for their turn to complete a transaction. Customers who come first are served first. At a certain point when there are lots of customers waiting, a decision is taken to split the queue elements into two empty queues q1 and q2. The customers are split based on the alphabetical order of their first names. Customers with first name starting A-H are added to q1 while the others (first name starting I-Z) are added to q2. In an application, write a method named splitQueue (in an application) that accepts as parameters 3 queues, the original queue (q0) and two empty queues (q1 and q2) to be filled as described above. Write also a main method in which you read the first names of customers from the user, fill them into q0 and call the method splitQueue to split q0 elements into q1 and q2. After the split display the elements of q1 first then those of q2. The header of the method is: public static void splitQueue ( Queue q0, Queue q1, Queue q2) Note:…

Given a list of lectures v1,v2,...,vn. As usual, there is a dependency between the lectures. That is, some lectures require that one or more other lectures have already been attended. Participation in a lecture is only possible if its prerequisites are fulfilled. These dependencies are given as a list of pairs. Specify an algorithm in pseudo code that determines the order in which the lectures can be attended for given lectures and their prerequisites. Determine the running time of the algorithm and give a reason for the correctness of your algorithm.

A priority queue is an abstract data type in which each data has a priority associated with it. If the data shares same priority, then whichever comes first in queue is served first. Write a C program for implementing a priority queue (in the increasing order of their value) using transform and conquer technique and implement the same using C language. Modify the program such that we can remove any given data at any given point of time
