ABSTRACT

In this paper, we present a novel approach for simulating a multi-process file system using Bash scripting. Our simulator aims to emulate the behavior of a multi-process file system by employing a combination of Bash commands and processes. We discuss the design principles and implementation details of our simulator, highlighting its capability to model concurrent file access scenarios and inter-process communication. By utilizing Bash scripting, our approach offers a lightweight and flexible solution for simulating complex file system interactions. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our simulator through various test cases, showcasing its ability to accurately replicate real-world file system behaviors in a multi-process environment.
