This project will demonstrate two processes acting as a producer and consumer in the language C$++.$

The program should create named semaphores which both parent and child can access. It should then create a block of shared memory that will serve as a shared buffer. The producer should begin placing numbers $1$ to $100$ into the shared buffer while the consumer begins getting the numbers out of the buffer and printing them. The buffer should hold $5$ numbers. The actions should be coordinated using semaphores, as shown in slides $34$ and $35$ of the chapter $6$ slides.

Producer Process:

do $\{$

$.../*$ produce an item in next$\_$produced $*/$

$...$

wait$($empty$)$;

wait$($mutex$)$;

$.../*$ add next produced to the buffer $*/$

$...$

signal$($mutex$)$;

signal$($full$)$;

$\}$ while $($true$)$;

Consumer Process:

Do $\{$

wait$($full$)$;

wait$($mutex$)$;

$.../*$ remove an item from buffer to next$\_$consumed $*/$

$...$

signal$($mutex$)$;

signal$($empty$)$;

$.../*$ consume the item in next consumed $*/$

$...\}$ while $($true$)$;
