The goal of this project is to acquire familiarity using POSIX thread management primitives and Linux processes synchronization.
- Understand and use LINUX functions for creating and synchronize shared memory between LINUX processes.
- Understand to write POSIX thread programs, where threads execute in different processes and communicate through shared memory (shmget, shmat, shmdt, shmctl)
- In this project we provide 2 parts of solution to the producer-modifier-consumer problem. A producer produces items in form of a stream and loads then into a buffer. A modifier receives each item, modifies it and sends it to the consumer who in turn, prints the final result in an output file. The solution containes 2 parts.
