Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a scenario where 4 processes compete for 3 resources of the same type, each process holds one resource and waits for the others to release theirs. Analyze if a deadlock exists.
💡 Hint: Map the resource allocation and requests to identify circular dependencies.
Develop a flowchart that illustrates the deadlock detection process for a system with multiple resources of varying types.
💡 Hint: Create nodes for decision-making at each step.
