Goal

• Understand the issues in designing message-passing APIs and how to implement them

Reading Assignments

• MOS 2.3.8, 8.2.1-8.2.4

Issues

• Consider implementing inter-process communication primitives send(destination, msg, n) and recv(source, buffer, max) where destination and source specify the destination process and source process respectively.  Provide psuedo-code to show how to implement the two primitives.  Your code should consider issues with synchronization and buffer management.
