Extends barbershop problem with FIFO service ordering. Each thread has personal semaphore in queue ensuring first-come-first-served. Barber removes and signals threads sequentially maintaining arrival order through queue management and mutex protection.
Classical Dijkstra barbershop problem with waiting room capacity. Customers balk when full, barber sleeps when idle. Solution combines scoreboard and dual rendezvous patterns ensuring mutual exclusion during haircuts with proper wake-sleep coordination.
Addresses communal dining synchronization with finite pot capacity. Cook-savage coordination using scoreboard pattern and rendezvous. Ensures pot refilled when empty and savages wait for cook, demonstrating deadlock-free producer-consumer variant.
Presents utility code for POSIX Threads with error checking wrappers. Covers pthread_create, pthread_join, semaphore initialization, and compilation with -lpthread flag. Includes structure semantics and pointer handling for thread-safe code.
Provides Python threading wrapper code improving semaphore interface and thread creation. Includes keyboard interrupt handling with watcher process, signal management, and cleaner API for creating and managing multiple threads.
