Detecting Deadlocks in Concurrent Systems
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.7146/brics.v3i16.19978Resumé
We use a geometric description for deadlocks occurring in scheduling
problems for concurrent systems to construct a partial order and hence a directed graph, in which the local maxima correspond to deadlocks. Algorithms finding deadlocks are described and assessed.
Keywords: deadlock, partial order, search algorithm, concurrency, distributed
systems.
