The attached image contains the question, stater template and sample output about a task for developing a C program to simulate a fast$-$food restaurant system using Inter$-$Process Communication $($IPC$)$ with shared memory. The system will have producer processes for creating food items like burgers, fries, and soda drinks, and consumer processes representing customers consuming these items. The simulation involves managing multiple processes, handling signals for graceful shutdown, and managing shared memory segments in a UNIX$/$Linux environment.

The task involves developing a C program to simulate a fast$-$food restaurant system using Inter$-$Process Communication $($IPC$)$ with shared memory. The system will have producer processes creating food items $($burgers$,$ fries, and soda drinks$)$ and consumer processes representing customers consuming these items. The simulation requires managing multiple processes, handling signals for graceful shutdown, and managing shared memory segments in a UNIX$/$Linux environment.

Key components of the system include:

Shared memory segments for each food item with buffers.

Producer processes for burgers, fries, and soda drinks with specified production rates.

Consumer processes representing individual customers, family groups, groups of friends, and party orders with varying consumption rates.

A monitor process to display the current state of the food buffers.

The assignment tasks involve:

Initializing global variables for shared memory.

Creating shared memory segments for food queues.

Attaching to shared memory segments.

Initializing queues and shared memory.

Forking a monitor process.

Forking producer processes.

Processing customer orders.

Setting up signal handling for cleanup.

Waiting for child processes to finish.

Implementing functions for initializing queues, producing and consuming items, monitoring queues, and cleanup.
