You are designing a banking system that allows deposits, withdrawals, and transfers. You have at most 500 customers, and all transactions are fully processed before further transactions are allowed. Assume you cannot rely on external software and all you have is a bare Linux system. How would you design this system so that even if the system crashes or the power goes out, the balances in the bank accounts remain consistent? That is, transfers should never create or destroy money.
