1) For the following “Producer-consumer Problem using Semaphores”, (a) Will there be any deadlock if the order of the downs were switched, for the producer or for the consumer individually as well as together (so, 3 combinations)? Explain. Now, (b) similarly consider the order of ups and show (3 combinations again) – when you assume that the ups are switched then keep the downs intact (not switched).
