Process 1 Process 2 check if flag is 0 - it is check if flag is 0 - it is set flag to 1 set flag to 1 At that point both processes are in their critical sections.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
