  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. Deadlock prevention algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_prevention_algorithms

    Distributed deadlocks can be detected either by constructing a global wait-for graph, from local wait-for graphs at a deadlock detector or by a distributed algorithm like edge chasing. Phantom deadlocks are deadlocks that are detected in a distributed system due to system internal delays but no longer actually exist at the time of detection.

  4. Bélády's anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bélády's_anomaly

    This phenomenon is commonly experienced when using the first-in first-out page replacement algorithm. In FIFO, the page fault may or may not increase as the page frames increase, but in optimal and stack-based algorithms like LRU, as the page frames increase, the page fault decreases. László Bélády demonstrated this in 1969. [1]

  5. 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 ...

  6. Lock (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    Dekker's or Peterson's algorithm are possible substitutes if atomic locking operations are not available. Careless use of locks can result in deadlock or livelock. A number of strategies can be used to avoid or recover from deadlocks or livelocks, both at design-time and at run-time. (The most common strategy is to standardize the lock ...

  7. Talk:Deadlock (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Deadlock_(computer...

    Even though most classical deadlock handling techniques can be extended to Distributed Systems, distributed deadlocks are a vast and more complex concept. They involved methods like edge-chasing algorithms, probe-based algorithms, etc. It is a more advanced and newer field compared to deadlocks in simpler multiprocessing systems.

  9. Cache replacement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies

    The LRU algorithm cannot be implemented in the critical path of computer systems, such as operating systems, due to its high overhead; Clock, an approximation of LRU, is commonly used instead. Clock-Pro is an approximation of LIRS for low-cost implementation in systems. [13]
