The L-exclusion problem is a variant of the starvation-free mutual exclusion problem. We make two changes: as many as L threads may be in the critical section at the same time, and fewer than L threads might fail (by halting) in the critical section. An implementation must satisfy the following conditions:_____.
L-Exclusion: At any time, at most L threads are in the critical section.
L-Starvation-Freedom: As long as fewer than L threads are in the critical section, then some thread that wants to enter the critical section will eventually succeed (even if some threads in the critical section have halted).
Modify the n-process Bakery mutual exclusion algorithm to turn it into an L-exclusion algorithm. Do not consider atomic operations in your answer. You can provide a pseudo-code solution or written solution.

Answer:

The solution is as follows.

class LFilters implements Lock {

int[] lvl;

int[] vic;

public LFilters(int n, int l) {

lvl = new int[max(n-l+1,0)];

vic = new int[max(n-l+1,0)];

for (int i = 0; i < n-l+1; i++) {

lvl[i] = 0;

}

}

public void lock() {

int me = ThreadID.get();

for (int i = 1; i < n-l+1; i++) { // attempt level i

lvl[me] = i;

vic[i] = me;

// rotate while conflicts exist

int above = l+1;

while (above > l && vic[i] == me) {

above = 0;

for (int k = 0; k < n; k++) {

if (lvl[k] >= i) above++;

}

}

}

}

public void unlock() {

int me = ThreadID.get();

lvl[me] = 0;

}

}

Explanation:

The code is presented above in which the a class is formed which has two variables, lvl and vic. It performs the operation of lock as indicated above.

Which of the following best explains how an analog audio signal is typically represented by a computer?
a. An analog audio signal is measured at regular intervals. Each measurement is stored as a sample, which is represented at the lowest level as a sequence of bits.
b. An analog audio signal is measured as a sequence of operations that describe how the sound can be reproduced. The operations are represented at the lowest level as programming instructions.
c. An analog audio signal is measured as input parameters to a program or procedure. The inputs are represented at the lowest level as a collection of variables.
d. An analog audio signal is measured as text that describes the attributes of the sound. The text is represented at the lowest level as a string.

Write a MIPS assembly language program that prompts for a user to enter a series of floating point numbers and calls read_float to read in numbers and store them in an array only if the same number is not stored in the array yet. Then the program should display the array content on the console window.
Consult the green sheet and the chapter 3 for assembly instructions for floating point numbers. Here is one instruction that you might use:
c.eq.s $f2, $f4
bc1t Label1
Here if the value in the register $f2 is equals to the value in $f4, it jumps to the Label1. If it should jump when the value in the register $f2 is NOT equals to the value in $f4, then it should be:
c.eq.s $f2, $f4
bc1f Label1
To load a single precision floating point number (instead of lw for an integer), you might use:
l.s $f12, 0($t0)
To store a single precision floating point number (instead of sw for an integer), you might use:
s.s $f12, 0($t0)
To assign a constant floating point number (instead of li for an integer), you might use:
li.s $f12, 123.45
To copy a floating point number from one register to another (instead of move for an integer), you might use:
mov.s $f10, $f12
The following shows the syscall numbers needed for this assignment.
System Call System Call System Call
Number Operation Description
2 print_float $v0 = 2, $f12 = float number to be printed
4 print_string $v0 = 4, $a0 = address of beginning of ASCIIZ string
6 read_float $v0 = 6; user types a float number at keyboard; value is store in $f0
8 read_string $v0 = 8; user types string at keybd; addr of beginning of string is store in $a0; len in $a1
------------------------------------------
C program will ask a user to enter numbers and store them in an array
only if the same number is not in the array yet.
Then it prints out the result array content.
You need to write MIPS assembly code based on the following C code.
-------------------------------------------
void main( )
{
int arraysize = 10;
float array[arraysize];
int i, j, alreadyStored;
float num;
i = 0;
while (i < arraysize)
{
printf("Enter a number:\n");
//read an integer from a user input and store it in num1
scanf("%f", &num);
//check if the number is already stored in the array
alreadyStored = 0;
for (j = 0; j < i; j++)
{
if (array[j] == num)
{
alreadyStored = 1;
}
}
//Only if the same number is not in the array yet
if (alreadyStored == 0)
{
array[i] = num;
i++;
}
}
printf("The array contains the following:\n");
i = 0;
while (i < arraysize)
{
printf("%f\n", array[i]);
i++;
}
return;
}

This program exercise #4 wants the user to write a program in python that contains a list of movies titles, years and movie rating. You will need to display a menu option that allows the user to list all of the movies, add a movie, delete a movie and exit out of the program. This will be done using lists and the functions to add an element to a list and how to delete an element to a list. The program should be written utilizing functions in python for the main function, the display_menu function, the delete function, the add function and the list movie function. You can place this all in one python file or include them in various python files that include them into the main program. Let me know if you have any questions with this exercise. Output Screen: COMMAND MENU list - List all movies add - Add a movie del - Delete a movie exit - Exit program Command List: list 1. Monty Python and the Holy Grail, 1979, R 2. On the Waterfront, 1954, PG 3. Cat on a Hot Tim Roof, 1958, R Command: add Name: Gone with the Wind Year: 1939 Rating: PG Gone with the Wind was added.
