                      2: 
                      3:

                      5: Summary:
                      6: 
                      7: The DBBS sample demonstrates the distributed version of the classical
                      8: Operating Systems producer-consumer problem. A centralized buffer
                      9: pool managed by the RPC server is used by the producers and consumers.
                     10: Counting semaphores are used to make sure that comsumptions take place
                     11: when there is at least one unconsumed string in the buffer pool and
                     12: productions take place when there is at least one empty slot in the
                     13: buffer pool. Synchronization to the shared buffer pool is coordinated
                     14: by means of a mutex.
                     15: 
                     16: 
                     17: 
                     18: More Information:
                     19: 
                     20: To use this program, the RPC locator service must be first started
                     21: using the following command line:
                     22: 
                     23: start locator /noservice
                     24: 
                     25: Next, start the application server by typing:
                     26: 
                     27: start bndbufs
                     28: 
                     29: Multiple clients could then be started by typing:
                     30: 
                     31: start bndbufc
                     32: 
                     33: for each client to be started.
                     34: 
                     35: The application uses while loops to run forever. Therefore, you need
                     36: to use ctrl-C to terminate each component.
