Abstract: | Mutual exclusion and general synchronization of concurrent processes (‘tasks’) are well-known principles for constructing reliable real-time systems. This paper shows how to implement these principles under a typical commercial operating system which provides incomplete synchronization operations. The problem of synchronizing erroneous tasks is discussed briefly. |
