  2. Thread safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_safety

    However, deadlock-free guarantees cannot always be given, since deadlocks can be caused by callbacks and violation of architectural layering independent of the library itself. Software libraries can provide certain thread-safety guarantees. [5] For example, concurrent reads might be guaranteed to be thread-safe, but concurrent writes might not be.

  3. 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 ...

  4. List of HTTP status codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes

    This class of status code indicates the client must take additional action to complete the request. Many of these status codes are used in URL redirection. [2]A user agent may carry out the additional action with no user interaction only if the method used in the second request is GET or HEAD.

  5. Deadlock prevention algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_prevention_algorithms

    In computer science, deadlock prevention algorithms are used in concurrent programming when multiple processes must acquire more than one shared resource.If two or more concurrent processes obtain multiple resources indiscriminately, a situation can occur where each process has a resource needed by another process.

  6. MySQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL

    MySQL (/ ˌ m aɪ ˌ ɛ s ˌ k juː ˈ ɛ l /) [6] is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). [6] [7] Its name is a combination of "My", the name of co-founder Michael Widenius's daughter My, [1] and "SQL", the acronym for Structured Query Language.

  7. Double-checked locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking

    Check that the variable is initialized (without obtaining the lock). If it is initialized, return it immediately. Obtain the lock. Double-check whether the variable has already been initialized: if another thread acquired the lock first, it may have already done the initialization. If so, return the initialized variable.

  8. Two-phase locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_locking

    In databases and transaction processing, two-phase locking (2PL) is a pessimistic concurrency control method that guarantees conflict-serializability. [1] [2] It is also the name of the resulting set of database transaction schedules (histories).

  9. Dining philosophers problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dining_philosophers_problem

    While the resource hierarchy solution avoids deadlocks, it is not always practical, especially when the list of required resources is not completely known in advance. For example, if a unit of work holds resources 3 and 5 and then determines it needs resource 2, it must release 5, then 3 before acquiring 2, and then it must re-acquire 3 and 5 ...
