A single-lane bridge connects the two Vermont villages of North Tunbridge and South Tunbridge. Farmers in the two villages use this bridge to deliver their produce to the neighboring town. The bridge can become deadlocked of a northbound and a southbound farmer get on the bridge at the same time. (Vermont farmers are stubborn and are unable to back up.)a. Using exactly one semaphore, design an algorithm that prevents deadlock. Do not be

concerned about starvation and inefficency.

b. Provide a solution using Monitor that is starvation-free.

import java.lang.InterruptedException;

import java.lang.Thread;

import java.util.Random;

public class Main {

final private static int FARMERS = 10;

public static void main(String[] args) {

Random r = new Random();

System.out.println("Running with " + FARMERS + " farmers...");

// Enter a bunch of farmers from different directions.

for (int i = 0; i < FARMERS; i++) {

} else {

}
