(Hehe, I was hoping one will ask. There is a famous philosopher assay: there are 5 philosophers sitting at a table with 5 plates of spaghetti. Next to each plate, there is one fork. A philosopher will need two forks to eat the spaghetti. Now, not all philosophers will be hungry at the same time. While they are not hungry, they will be thinking or philosophizing.
The problem is: how to manage the problem once one wants to eat the spaghetti, but there are no two forks available. This is a model for multitasking systems; how to handle several jobs)
