  abstract =     "In operating systems courses, students study the major
                 algorithms used in operating systems to manage the
                 various objects and resources in a computing system:
                 processes, files, buffer space, processors, messages,
                 main memory, semaphores, and disk storage. Various
                 classical synchronization problems such as the dining
                 philosophers, the readers and writers, and the
                 producers and consumers with bounded buffer are also
                 analyzed. Even though the computing systems being
                 studied are getting more and more powerful, these
                 algorithms and classical problems are usually analyzed
                 using blackboard, chalk, pencil, and paper. This paper
                 describes an X-windows based package called xtango that
                 was used to animate some of the algorithms and
                 classical problems studied in operating systems. One
                 animation typical of those that have been developed is
                 presented. Students can use these animations during
                 study outside the classroom for a better understanding
                 of the algorithms. Instructors can use the animations
                 to facilitate the presentation of the algorithms in the
                 classroom.",
