In this question, you are required to simulate the starving problem that a process may suffer if all other processes in the system have higher priority than its priority. It is required to create at least two processes (P1 and P2) with priorities 40 and 35 for example. You should create a third process (Pstav) with less priority such as 25.
You may need to put P1 and P2 in the sleep state every couple of seconds to simulate a context switch between P1 and P2. When P1 sleeps, P2 will run and when P2 sleeps, P1 will run. Until now, Pstarv will not be able to run since its priority is the lowest priority. You need to fix that. You are required to change/update/increase the priority of Pstarv each time a context switch occurs.
So, after a number of context switches, Pstarv will finally be able to run to print its ID and print a celebration message that it is finally running.
Feel free to assume any missing information such as should you have a flag or an argument to decide which process you are interested to avoid starvation, should you use shell commands or not, should you increase the Pstarv priority by 1 or by 5…..… etc. P1 and P2 should not know anything about the Pstarv process. Do not hardcode it inside P1 or P2. So, you should not include the code of increasing the Pstarv priority in P1 nor P2.

The idea that, for each pair of devices v and w, there’s a strict dichotomy between being “in range” or “out of range” is a simplified abstraction. more accurately, there’s a power decay function f (·) that specifies, for a pair of devices at distance δ, the signal strength f(δ) that they’ll be able to achieve on their wireless connection. (we’ll assume that f (δ) decreases with increasing δ.) we might want to build this into our notion of back-up sets as follows: among the k devices in the back-up set of v, there should be at least one that can be reached with very high signal strength, at least one other that can be reached with moderately high signal strength, and so forth. more concretely, we have values p1 ≥ p2 ≥ . . ≥ pk, so that if the back-up set for v consists of devices at distances d1≤d2≤≤dk,thenweshouldhavef(dj)≥pj foreachj. give an algorithm that determines whether it is possible to choose a back-up set for each device subject to this more detailed condition, still requiring that no device should appear in the back-up set of more than b other devices. again, the algorithm should output the back-up sets themselves, provided they can be found.\
