Abstract
Chapter 5 covers process management. It introduces the concept of processes and demonstrates the basic technique of multitasking by context switching. It shows how to create processes dynamically and discusses the goals, policy and algorithms of process scheduling. It covers process synchronization and shows how to implement the various kinds of process synchronization mechanisms, which include sleep/wakeup, mutexes and semaphores. It shows how to use the process synchronization mechanisms to implement event-driven embedded systems. It discusses interprocess communication schemes, which include shared memory, pipes and message passing. It shows how to integrate these concepts to implement a uniprocessor (UP) kernel for process management, and it shows the programming techniques for both non-preemptive and preemptive process scheduling. The UP kernel serves as the foundation for developing complete operating systems in later chapters.
