Question
Monitors: Select all of the following statements that are true.
Only one process can be active in the monitor at a time.
The Urgent Queue stores suspended processes that are waiting on a specific
condition.
When the "Signal and Continue"-approach (Mesa semantics) is applied, the
signaling process P is placed on the Urgent Queue.
A process enters the monitor by calling one of its monitor procedures.
The Mesa semantics leads to a more efficient implementation and reduces the
number of context switches.
Monitors and semaphores are equally powerful from a theoretical point of view.
