Design an algorithm for a bounded-buffer monitor in which the buffers (portions) are embedded within the monitor itself."

Assume the buffer can hold MAX_ITEMS items and each item is an integer. You should write two functions: void produce (int v) - This function is called by the producer to put item v in the buffer int consume () - This function is called by the consumer to remove an item in the buffer and returns the item

Required code is given below:

Explanation:

monitor bounded buffer {

int items[MAX ITEMS];

int numItems = 0;

condition full, empty;

void produce (int v)

{

while (numItems = = MAX ITEMS) full. wait ();

items[numItems++] = v;

empty. signal ();

}

int consume ()

{

int retVal;

while (numItems = = 0) empty. wait ();

retVal = items[--numItems];

full. signal ();

return retVal;

}

}
