    occurrence of deadlock in distributed system. P 1 initiates deadlock detection. C 1 sends the probe saying P 2 depends on P 3. Once the message is received by C 2, it checks whether P 3 is idle. P 3 is idle because it is locally dependent on P 4 and updates dependent 3 (2) to True. As above, C 2 sends probe to C 3 and C 3 sends probe to C 1.

  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. Algorithms for Recovery and Isolation Exploiting Semantics

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithms_for_Recovery...

    The naive way for checkpointing involves locking the whole database to avoid changes to the DPT and the TT during the creation of the checkpoint. Fuzzy logging circumvents that by writing two log records. One Fuzzy Log Starts Here record and, after preparing the checkpoint data, the actual checkpoint.

  5. Application checkpointing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_checkpointing

    One of the original and now most common means of application checkpointing was a "save state" feature in interactive applications, in which the user of the application could save the state of all variables and other data and either continue working or exit the application and restart the application and restore the saved state at a later time.

  6. Deadlock prevention algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_prevention_algorithms

    A couple of examples include: expanding distributed super-thread locking mechanism to consider each subset of existing locks; 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 100% of the places that temporary ...

  7. 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.

  8. Record locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_locking

    Record locking is the technique of preventing simultaneous access to data in a database, to prevent inconsistent results. The classic example is demonstrated by two bank clerks attempting to update the same bank account for two different transactions. Clerks 1 and 2 both retrieve (i.e., copy) the account's record. Clerk 1 applies and saves a ...

  9. Lock (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    The more fine-grained the available locks, the less likely one process/thread will request a lock held by the other. (For example, locking a row rather than the entire table, or locking a cell rather than the entire row); deadlock: the situation when each of at least two tasks is waiting for a lock that the other task holds. Unless something is ...
