Section A:

Synthesize programming ideas from the concepts of Generic classes and methods you implemented in

homework $1.$

The goal for homework $2$ is to create a generic class of process attributes and operational methods for

managing processes in a computer system. $($You will use this generic class by instantiating it with a

'concrete' program object called: Process; and simulate an operating system's functions of process

scheduling and performance analysis in Programming Assignment Part$1$ and Part$2.)$

The generic class must have the following properties:

Generic variables for:

Process ID$,$ which will become a concrete integer type.

Priority number, which will become a concrete integer type.

Process arrival time, which will become a concrete double $($random number$)$ type.

Process service time, which will become a concrete double $($random number$)$ type.

Queue size, which will become a 'private' concrete integer type.

Generic methods: $($think about what generic parameter types to pass for each method, if any$)$

Enqueue $()//$ for adding a process to a priority queue data structure

Dequeue $()//$ for taking a process from a priority queue data structure

Reset$\_$Priority $()//$ for changing the priority of a process

Waiting$\_$Time $\frac{0}{\frac{?}{?}}$ for calculating the time a process waits in a system

CPU$\_$Running $\frac{0}{\frac{?}{?}}$ for processing scheduled $($dequeued$)$ process $-$ clock 'advance.$\text{'}$

Time$\_$In$-$System $()//$ for calculating the total time a process stays in a system

Note: The actual logic or algorithms for these methods must be done in pseudocode form, with

comments, for homework purposes. $[$Use ideas about these methods for Queues and other data structures

from the textbook$].$ In Part$1$ and Part$2$ of the Programming Assignments you will implement the actual

logic of these methods. Thus, the outcomes of this homework will serve as a basis for these programming

assignments, therefore any additional operational methods and variables needed for a fully functioning

'concrete' class objects in Part$1$ and Part$2$ will be stated in their respective specs.
