SQL Server also includes two more lightweight mutual exclusion solutions latches and spinlocks which are less robust than locks but are less resource intensive.
42.
In terms of the traditional separation between fiction and non-fiction, the lines are now commonly understood as blurred, showing more overlap than mutual exclusion.
43.
However, the code in critical section can not be issued prior to the lock acquisition is complete because mutual exclusion may not be guaranteed.
44.
Mutual exclusion is the basic idea of the problem; the dining philosophers create a generic and abstract scenario useful for explaining issues of this type.
45.
A funnel is a mutual exclusion ( mutex ) mechanism that prevents more than one thread from accessing certain kernel resources at the same time.
46.
The academic study of concurrent algorithms started in the 1960s, with credited with being the first paper in this field, identifying and solving mutual exclusion.
47.
The HEP implemented a type of mutual exclusion in which all registers and locations in data memory had associated " empty " and " full " states.
48.
In contrast, global data structures protected by mutual exclusion cannot safely be accessed in an interrupt handler, as the preempted thread may be the one holding the lock.
49.
Mutual exclusion will still be guaranteed as neither process can become critical before setting their flag ( implying at least one process will enter the while loop ).
50.
The two techniques are complementary and comparison between the two can provide useful structural information such as in the case of the rule of mutual exclusion for centrosymmetric molecules.
