Program Plan Intro

Deadlock:

It is a condition in which two or more processes are blocked from progressing because each is waiting for a resource that is allocated to another.

Deadlock cannot occur unless all three of the following conditions are satisfied:

  • There is competition for non-sharable resources.
  • The resources are requested on a partial basis; that is, having received some resources, a process will return later to request more.
  • Once a resource has been allocated, it cannot be forcibly retrieved.
