Overview

This project demonstrates the classic Producer-Consumer problem using Java. The Producer-Consumer problem is a synchronization problem that involves ensuring that producers (who produce data and add it to a buffer) and consumers (who take data from the buffer) operate without running into race conditions. This project uses Java's synchronized methods. It features a graphical user interface (GUI) to simulate the production and consumption of products.

Features

• Producers can add data to the buffer while there is an empty scpace .
• Consumers can consume data from the buffer if they exist.
• The GUI allows users to:
  • Add new producer.
  • Add new consumer.
  • Remove a producer.
  • Remove a consumer.
  • View the number of producer and consumer existe.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues
