Time: 50 min

No. of Students: 20

1. Specific Objective:

At the end of this lesson, students will be able:

To explain the use of Semaphores in solving the Critical Section Problem.
Tp describe the concept and implementation of Monitors in handling the Critical Section Problem.

2. Instructional materials:

Daily Usage Materials,
PowerPoint Presentation Slide,
Laptop,
Projector etc.

3. Teaching Learning Activities:

I will enter the classroom and motivate students before starting the lesson, emphasizing the importance of understanding the Critical Section Problem and its solutions.
I will open the first slide of the presentation on PowerPoint that shows today's topic, "Solution of Critical Section Problem: Semaphores, Monitors," so that the student will have an idea of what they are going to learn in this lesson.
I will begin the class by asking students some questions related to today's topic to gauge their prior knowledge and provoke critical thinking. Then, I will encourage students to share their thoughts and answers, fostering a participatory learning environment.
I will discuss Semaphores as a solution to the Critical Section Problem, explaining its concept, operations, and usage with examples.
Next, I will introduce Monitors, discussing its features, advantages, and how it addresses the Critical Section Problem effectively.
I will summarize the lesson in brief, highlighting the key points and reinforcing the main concepts discussed during the class.
I will emphasize the importance of understanding Semaphores and Monitors as essential synchronization mechanisms in operating systems.

4. Assessment:

During the session, ask questions like,

Can you explain the Critical Section Problem?
How do Semaphores help in solving the Critical Section Problem?
What are the advantages of using Monitors in handling the Critical Section Problem?

5. Homework:

Prepare a presentation on a real-world application where Semaphores or Monitors are used to ensure synchronization and address the Critical Section Problem. Submit that in our google classroom for now and then will present that after finishing our syllabus.
