Wanna know the platform !!

Quote Quote Modify Modify

Hi everybody ..
 
I am currently learning operating systems, and am interested in implementing some parallel programming problems (Dining philosophers, Readers-Writers ... etc).  
 
I am interested in programming in three styles
 
1. Using multiple processes
2. Using multiple threads
3. Using monitors
 
Please guide me as to what platfroms (or language, or software .......) are needed to get them implemented .....  
 
(I have a Red Hat 9 Linux version installed, but that can probably provide the basis for first style of programming, or DOES IT... ?? Embarassed)
 
I really need help urgently.....

I'm not sure what you mean by 3, but 1 and 2 at least can be done in C/C++. I'd hardly call it parallel programming though.  For that, I'd look to something like MPI (which can also be done in C/C++)
 
I'd look for some tutorials online, 1 and 2 aren't all that difficult. MPI can be trickier, and I think it may require some extra software (to make sure the messages get from one process to the other correctly). But it's been a while I came into contact with it.
 
Linux should by default have C/C++ (compilers gcc/g++). Of course, you could also opt for Java, which also comes standard, I think it's easier with threads (not that I ever use java myself).
 
For C++ http://www.icce.rug.nl/documents/cplusplus/cplusplus.html is a good reference book. But you'll probably want a tutorial first to learn the basics.

My suggestion is Java. It is easier to learn and you can implement everything you wrote.

Java is old-fashioned. It is good for learning purposes. In my opinion the best thing for now is Rubby

All of these (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_concurrent_and_parallel_programming _languages#Multi-threaded) programming languages are multi threaded

yeah you right, its old fashioned thing, but it is best for learning period and it is best for the newbies. Rubby is a little bit tough than java.

And it got rejuvenated with Java 8.

First you have to learn basic programming concept.

I don't agree that Java is old-fashioned. I think Java in your case is the best solution
