Deadlock Detection, Deadlock Resolution, OR RequestModel, Distributed Systems
Deadlocks in the OR request model are usually resolved by aborting a deadlocked process. The work done by the aborted process is wasted. Therefore, the throughput of a system could be improved ensuring that deadlock reso lution algorithms do not cause false deadlock resolutions. This paper presents the performance evaluation of a safe deadlock resolution algorithm, which has a communication cost similar to other safe-detection algorithms (do not con sider explicitely deadlock resolution).
