  2. 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.

    Deadlock prevention techniques and algorithms Name Coffman conditions Description Banker's algorithm: Mutual exclusion: The Banker's algorithm is a resource allocation and deadlock avoidance algorithm developed by Edsger Dijkstra. Preventing recursive locks: Mutual exclusion: This prevents a single thread from entering the same lock more than once.

  4. Deadlock (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    The term "deadlock avoidance" appears to be very close to "deadlock prevention" in a linguistic context, but they are very much different in the context of deadlock handling. Deadlock avoidance does not impose any conditions as seen in prevention but, here each resource request is carefully analyzed to see whether it could be safely fulfilled ...

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostrich_algorithm

    In computer science, the ostrich algorithm is a strategy of ignoring potential problems on the basis that they may be exceedingly rare. It is named after the ostrich effect which is defined as "to stick one's head in the sand and pretend there is no problem". It is used when it appears the situation may be more cost-effectively managed by ...
