  2. Deadlock (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_(computer_science)

    Phantom deadlocks are deadlocks that are falsely detected in a distributed system due to system internal delays but do not actually exist. For example, if a process releases a resource R1 and issues a request for R2 , and the first message is lost or delayed, a coordinator (detector of deadlocks) could falsely conclude a deadlock (if the ...

  3. Banker's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banker's_algorithm

    Banker's algorithm is a resource allocation and deadlock avoidance algorithm developed by Edsger Dijkstra that tests for safety by simulating the allocation of predetermined maximum possible amounts of all resources, and then makes an "s-state" check to test for possible deadlock conditions for all other pending activities, before deciding whether allocation should be allowed to continue.

  4. Deadlock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock

    Deadlock commonly refers to: Deadlock (locksmithing) or deadbolt, a physical door locking mechanism; Deadlock (computer science), a situation where two processes are each waiting for the other to finish; Political deadlock or gridlock, a situation of difficulty passing laws that satisfy the needs of the people

  5. Turn restriction routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_restriction_routing

    A deadlock (shown in fig 1) is a situation in which no further transportation of packets can take place due to the saturation of network resources like buffers or links. The main reason for a deadlock is the cyclic acquisition of channels in the network. [2] For example, consider there are four channels in a network.

  6. Deadlock prevention algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_prevention_algorithms

    Some examples include: lock hierarchies, [1] lock reference-counting and preemption (either using versioning or allowing data corruption when preemption occurs); Wait-For-Graph (WFG) algorithms, which track all cycles that cause deadlocks (including temporary deadlocks); and heuristics algorithms which don't necessarily increase parallelism in ...

  7. Wait-for graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait-For_Graph

    A wait-for graph in computer science is a directed graph used for deadlock detection in operating systems and relational database systems.. In computer science, a system that allows concurrent operation of multiple processes and locking of resources and which does not provide mechanisms to avoid or prevent deadlock must support a mechanism to detect deadlocks and an algorithm for recovering ...

  8. Deadlock (game theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_(game_theory)

    Even though deadlock game can satisfy group and individual benefit at mean time, but it can be influenced by dynamic one-side-offer bargaining deadlock model. [1] As a result, deadlock negotiation may happen for buyers. To deal with deadlock negotiation, three types of strategies are founded to break through deadlock and buyer's negotiation.

  9. Safety and liveness properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_and_liveness_properties

    The good thing in the first example is discrete but not in the others. Producing an answer within a specified real-time bound is a safety property rather than a liveness property. This is because a discrete bad thing is being proscribed: a partial execution that reaches a state where the answer still has not been produced and the value of the ...
