Write the init program in C, which will fork off the two child processes.

Decide how to implement the two-way IPC. You can use a TCP socket, a two-way pipe (mkfifo), shared memory*, or two one-way pipes*. Think about why you chose one way over the other, and include a comment about it in your summary write-up. (*you would probably need to use the init program as the CPU emulator for these methods to work).

Implement the CPU emulator, which simply receives PCB information, decrements the number of remaining CPU cycles of the PCB by a fixed amount, and sends it back to the scheduler.

Implement the scheduler, which reads process data from a file, adds the processes to a queue, then pops the front, sends it to the CPU, receives process data back from the CPU, and appends the process to the back of the queue (if it has not completed yet).

process list:

process_name, PID, state, priority, interruptable, est_total_run_time, est_remaining_run_time
