  2. Synchronization (computer science) - Wikipedia

    Then, they are joined again and leave the system. Thus, parallel programming requires synchronization as all the parallel processes wait for several other processes to occur. Producer-Consumer: In a producer-consumer relationship, the consumer process is dependent on the producer process until the necessary data has been produced.

  3. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    The following C code examples illustrate two threads that share a global integer i. The first thread uses busy-waiting to check for a change in the value of i : #include <pthread.h> #include <stdatomic.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> /* i is global, so it is visible to all functions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HackerRank

    HackerRank's programming challenges can be solved in a variety of programming languages (including Java, C++, PHP, Python, SQL, and JavaScript) and span multiple computer science domains. [ 2 ] HackerRank categorizes most of their programming challenges into a number of core computer science domains, [ 3 ] including database management ...

    Illustration of the dining philosophers problem. Each philosopher has a bowl of spaghetti and can reach two of the forks. In computer science, the dining philosophers problem is an example problem often used in concurrent algorithm design to illustrate synchronization issues and techniques for resolving them.

  6. Monitor (synchronization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_(synchronization)

    wait c, m, where c is a condition variable and m is a mutex (lock) associated with the monitor. This operation is called by a thread that needs to wait until the assertion P c is true before proceeding. While the thread is waiting, it does not occupy the monitor. The function, and fundamental contract, of the "wait" operation, is to do the ...

    The expression b->Access() will use B's own dispatch table or the additional C table, depending on the type of object b refers to. If it refers to an object of type C, the compiler must ensure that C's Access implementation receives an instance address for the entire C object, rather than the inherited B part of that object. [8]

  8. Halting problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem

    This program is one of all the programs on which the halting function h is defined. The next step of the proof shows that h(e,e) will not have the same value as f(e,e). It follows from the definition of g that exactly one of the following two cases must hold: f(e,e) = 0 and so g(e) = 0. In this case program e halts on input e, so h(e,e) = 1.

  9. Call stack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_stack

    In a language with free pointers or non-checked array writes (such as in C), the mixing of control flow data which affects the execution of code (the return addresses or the saved frame pointers) and simple program data (parameters or return values) in a call stack is a security risk, and is possibly exploitable through stack buffer overflows ...
