Grading - Shared Memory/Ring Buffer Project
Introduction
Quickly, read the projects given to you and grade them, based on
a 20 point scale.
All we are looking for here is a program that has:
-
An implementation of a ring buffer that has an insert and delete
pointers that chase each other. (10 Points for the buffer itself
and its routines).
-
The use of shared memory. there is no requirement to create wrappers,
but some people probably did. (10 points for the use of shared
memory, make sure to check that they attached and remove shared
memory correctly).
-
Please comment on this project.
This is the first time I have tried to break out shared memory and
a ring buffer into a separate project.
Overall,
I think you are really trying to see if they understand
shared memory and the problems of ring buffers (mod ops on
going from the high index to the 0 index.
