  2. Read-copy-update - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read-copy-update

    In computer science, read-copy-update (RCU) is a synchronization mechanism that avoids the use of lock primitives while multiple threads concurrently read and update elements that are linked through pointers and that belong to shared data structures (e.g., linked lists, trees, hash tables).

  3. Synchronization (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization_(computer...

    Synchronization should be used here to avoid any conflicts for accessing this shared resource. Hence, when Process 1 and 2 both try to access that resource, it should be assigned to only one process at a time. If it is assigned to Process 1, the other process (Process 2) needs to wait until Process 1 frees that resource (as shown in Figure 2).

  4. Cristian's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cristian's_algorithm

    Cristian's algorithm works between a process P, and a time server S connected to a time reference source. Put simply: P requests the time from S at time t 0. After receiving the request from P, S prepares a response and appends the time T from its own clock. P receives the response at time t 1 then sets its time to be T + RTT/2, where RTT=t 1-t 0.

  5. Frame synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_synchronization

    Thus, it is acceptable to use a much smaller frame boundary marker, at the expense of a lengthier process to establish synchronization in the first place. Frame synchronization is achieved when the incoming frame alignment signals are identified (that is, distinguished from data bits), permitting the data bits within the frame to be extracted ...

  6. Peterson's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peterson's_algorithm

    Peterson's algorithm (or Peterson's solution) is a concurrent programming algorithm for mutual exclusion that allows two or more processes to share a single-use resource without conflict, using only shared memory for communication.

  7. Process management (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_management_(computing)

    A process is a program in execution, and an integral part of any modern-day operating system (OS). The OS must allocate resources to processes, enable processes to share and exchange information, protect the resources of each process from other processes and enable synchronization among processes.

  8. Monitor (synchronization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_(synchronization)

    PC = resume; // Set the next PC to the "resume" label below in this method. readyQueue. enqueue (currentThread); // Put this thread back onto the ready queue for later execution. Thread * otherThread = readyQueue . dequeue (); // Remove and get the next thread to run from the ready queue. currentThread = otherThread ; // Replace the global ...
