Synchronization 2: Monitors and Condition Variables

Discusses monitors, which provide mutual exclusion, and condition variables, which provide synchronization. Ways of combining them are discussed, along with a way of simulating a monitor using a mutex lock in a language that does not include monitors. Based on content from the book Operating Systems: Internals and Design Principles, by William Stallings.

Your videos are super helpful for my 400 level CSE classes, thanks a ton!

Great explanations. Looks like these mutex's are simply semaphores.

I'm a little bit confused. Do you mean that conditional variable is a datastructure that enforces wait() and notify() or do you mean any variable that controls whenever these are executed? Like the "while(not ready): wait()" is the condition?

its too vague in explaination just like other videos on youtube....i better see the documentation....

I know this is from 2016, but this seems like a combination of semaphores and the petersons algorithm. Maybe that's ignorance talking, but I just find it interesting.
