| ä | The
section of code implementing this |
|||||||||
| request
is called the entry
section |
||||||||||
| ä | The
critical section (CS) might be followed |
|||||||||
| by an
exit section |
||||||||||
| ä | The
remaining code is the remainder section |
|||||||||
| ä | The
critical section problem is to design a |
|||||||||
| protocol
that the processes can use so that |
||||||||||
| their
action will not depend on the order in |
||||||||||
| which
their execution is interleaved |
||||||||||
| (possibly
on many processors) |
