Principles of Deadlocks Flashcards
can be defined as parmanent blocking of a set of processes that either compete for system resources or communicate with each other.
Deadlocks
Note that all deadlocks involve conflicting needs for resources by two (2) or mroe processes. [T/F]
True
These resources can be used by only one process at a time and are not depleted by usage.
Reusable resources
These are resources that can be created and destroyed.
Consumable resources
The …, which was introduced by Richard Holt, is a useful tool in characterizing the allocation of resources to processes. It is a directed graph that depicts the state of system resource processes, wherein processes and resources are represented by nodes connected by edges
