CIS 3110: Operating SystemsThe requirementIn this assignment you are to implement two relatively small programs: Dining Philosophers and Simple Memory Management.SpecificationPart 1:Implement a solution to the dining philosophers problem. The pseudo code for this can be found in your book or in a thousand places on the web. Your program should take two command-line arguments: The first is the number of philosophers (an integer larger than 2), and the second is the number of times each philosopher should eat (an integer in the range 1..1000.). Each philosopher should start out thinking, and announce when he has begun to eat, and when he has begun to think. Note: a dining philosopher must be implemented either by a thread or a concurrent process, and the mutual exclusion among philosophers may be achieved by using any primitives, such as P/V, lock/unlock, etc., at your disposal.Thus, the following might be a transcript: (Of course, it would be more interesting with more than three philosophers.)$dine 3 2 Philosopher 1 thinking Philosopher 1 eating Philosopher 2 thinking Philosopher 3 thinking Philosopher 1 thinking Philosopher 2 eating Philosopher 2 thinking Philosopher 3 eating Philosopher 3 thinkingPhilosopher 1 eating Philosopher 1 thinking Philosopher 2 eating Philosopher 2 thinking Philosopher 3 eating Philosopher 3 thinkingPart 2:We discussed four algorithms for placing processes into holes in memory: best fit, worst fit, next fit and first fit. Your job is to write a simulator which will take processes of varying sizes, load them into memory according to each of those rules, and swap processes out as needed to create a larger hole. Let us make the following assumptions:1. Memory is of size 128MB2. The size of each process will be some whole number of megabytes in the range 1..1283. An initial list of processes and their sizes is loaded from a file, which is the only command-line argument. These processes should be loaded into a queue of processes waiting to be loaded into memory.4. Memory is initially empty. (We will ignore the space taken by operating system.)5. If a process needs to be loaded but there is no hole large enough to accommodate it, then processes should be swapped out, one at a time, until there is a hole large enough to hold the process that needs to be loaded.6. If a process needs to be swapped out, then the process which has been in memory the longest should be the one to go.7. When a process has been swapped out, it goes to the end of the queue of processes waiting to be swapped in (see next item).8. Once a process has been swapped out for a third time, we assume that that process has run to completion, and it is not re-queued. Note: not all processes will be swapped out for a third time.You can use whatever data structure you wish (eg. linked list, bitmap) to simulate memory usage, but please make sure that the comments in the file clearly indicate what data structure you are using and how it is implemented.The process file will be in the following format: Process id (a single letter)
