Write a multithreaded program that tests your solution to HW#1. You will create several threads – for example, 100 – and each thread will request a pid, sleep for a random period of time, and then release the pid. (Sleeping for a random period approximates the typical pid usage in which a pid is assigned to a new process, the process executes and terminates, and the pid is released on the process’ termination). On UNIX and Linux systems, sleeping is accomplished through the sleep() function, which is passed an integer value representing the number of seconds to sleep.

#define MIN_PID 300

#define MAX_PID 5000

int sz = MAX_PID - MIN_PID + 1;

unsigned char *unsignedChar;

int allocate_map();

int allocate_pid();

void release_pid(int pid);

int main()  

{

   int map = allocate_map();

   if (map == 1) {

       printf("\nBitmap Data Structure initialized.\n");

       int id = 0, i = 0;

   //create 100 processes

       while (i < 100) {

           int val = allocate_pid();

           printf("\nProcess %d: pid = %d", i+1, val);

           i++;

       }

   //release a few processes

   release_pid(303); printf("\nProcess 303 released.");

   release_pid(308); printf("\nProcess 308 released.");

   release_pid(309); printf("\nProcess 309 released.");

   //allocate a few more processes after this release

       int val = allocate_pid(); printf("\nProcess %d : pid = %d", ++i, val); //should be 303

   val = allocate_pid(); printf("\nProcess %d : pid = %d\n", ++i, val); //should be 308

   }

if you go to ask a question say ask, there should be something that looks like this. a camera lens.
