Concurrent Programming Guide

This document discusses using the BACI C-- language and jBACI interpreter for learning concurrent programming. It provides the following key points: 1. BACI C-- is a subset of C++ that adds concurrency constructs not in C/C++. jBACI is a simulation environment that allows editing, compiling, and running concurrent BACI C-- programs. 2. Concurrent processes are created using the "cobegin" keyword. Synchronization is provided by semaphores and monitors. Semaphores use "wait" and "signal" and monitors use "waitc" and "signalc". 3. An example program shows interference between concurrent tasks that

4. CP with BACI C--

• BACI C-- is a small subset of C++ with


concurrency constructs add-on not
originally available in C/C++.
• Only int & char data types & array of them
are supported. Refer to BACI C– compiler
handout for other limitations.
• Concurrent processes/threads are created &
executed using cobegin keyword.

4. CP with BACI C--

• BACI/jBACI (Ben-Ari Concurrency Interpreter)


is a simulation environment for learning
concurrent prog.
• BACI/jBACI is an IDE with editor, C-- &
pascal compiler, PCODE & concurrency
interpreter with RTSS.
• Refer to BACI/jBACI handouts for
installation & use. Requires Java (SDK or
JRE) to run !

4. CP with BACI C--

• Process sync provided with Semaphores &


Monitor:
• Semaphores keywords: semaphore, binarysem
– initialsem() initialize a semaphore at run-time.
– wait(semaphore& ) to enter critical region.
– signal(semaphore& ) to leave critical region.
• Monitor kw: monitor, condition
– waitc(condition, prio) to enter critical region.
– signalc(condition ) to leave critical region.

4. CP with BACI C--
• Example: interference in concurrent processes.
int sum = 0; // global shared var
void add10() { // task
int i; int local; // local vars
for (i = 1; i <= 10;i++) {
local = sum;
sum = local + 1;
}
}

void main() {
cobegin {
add10(); // create & run 2 tasks
add10();
}
cout << "Sum = " << sum << endl;
} 5
4. CP with BACI C--
• Solution: using semaphore.
int sum = 0; // global shared var
binarysem s = 1; // semaphore for sync
void add10() { // task
int i; int local; // local vars
for (i = 1; i <= 10;i++) {
wait(s); // enter critical region
local = sum; // do the job
sum = local + 1;
signal(s); // exit critical region
}
}

JBACI IDE: Lab Exercise 1
1. Open and compile concurrent program
(CP) C:\jbaci\examples\add.cm
2. Run the CP using Run & Go button. Run
the CP 5 times. Identify the value of
SUM for the 5 execution.
3. Run the CP step-by-step using Run &
Step Source or Step PCode. Explain the
problem occurred in this CP program.
Semaphore: Lab Exercise 2
1. Open and compile concurrent program
(CP) C:\jbaci\examples\addsem.cm.

2. Observe how the problem in Lab


Exercise 1 is solved here using step-by-
step using execution of the CP program.
