I've posted a Windows graphic version of Michael Feldman's Dining
Philosophers at ftp://members.aol.com/gmoran01/diners (note gmoran
zero one, not oh ell) in files src.zip and exe.zip The former contains
his original source, less the ANSI.SYS text mode graphics, and with
his interface package (room.ad?) appropriately modified. exe.zip is
the same, but with a compiled diners.exe added. The philosophers are
well known Ada icons.
The exe should run on any Windows PC while the source should compile
with any Windows-targetted Ada 95 compiler (it also needs the demo
version of the CLAW library which is freely downloadable as source
(400K) from www.rrsoftware.com). The source is simple enough students
should be able to experiment. Changing the relative durations of
eating and thinking will visually show the synchronization, or lack of
it, that may prevent or allow deadlock.
