Is it possible for a user program to easily and reliably schedule tasks already in the various system lists?? I ask this because I'm about to attempt implementing "Monitors" (kindof a structured Semaphore) to use with the Exec. I could use semaphores to do this, but that's not real clean. Basically, I would need to block a process (or task) and put it in one of my own condition queues. Then, at some later time, I'd have to re-schedule the task into one of the Exec queues (obviously the Ready queue). Can this be done reliably and easily?? Thanks in advance...
