The One-Lane Bridge. Cars coming from the north and the south arrive at a one- lane bridge. Cars heading in the same direction can cross the bridge at the same time, but cars heading in opposite directions cannot. (a) Develop a solution to this problem. First specify a global invariant, then develop a solution using semaphores for synchronization. Do not worry about fairness. (b) Modify your answer to (b) to ensure that any car that is waiting to cross the bridge eventually gets to do so. You may want to solve the problem differently. (Hint: Use the technique of passing the baton.)

a) i) With respect to computer simulation, explain the terms: steady state, pseudo random number generator, stopping criteria. ii) A packet router receives packets at a rate of 1 million packets per second. The queue formation in the router is modelled as an M/M/1 queue. If the mean packet length is 1000 bytes, what is the output bitrate (in bps) needed (at the router) to ensure that the Pr(queue > 100 packets) ≤ 0.00001? iii) A Call Centre has no call waiting facility, and so loses blocked calls. What formula is used to evaluate call blocking probability? Use this formula, or a more convenient approximation, to find the call blocking probability if the applied traffic is 50 Erlangs and the number of servers is 50.
