FILL IN THE BLANKS

1. The entry section in the critical section problem ensures that only one
process can enter the critical section at a time.
2. Process synchronization mechanisms aim to prevent race conditions and
ensure orderly execution of processes.
3. In semaphore implementation, the operation wait() decrements the
semaphore value.
4. Binary semaphores can be used to solve Critical section problems
5. Semaphore implementation allows processes to coordinate access to
shared resources using wait() and signal()operations.
