  • Abstract
    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 resolution algorithms do not cause false deadlock resolutions. This paper presents the performance evaluation of a safe-deadlock resolution algorithm, which has a theoretical communication cost similar to other safe-detection algorithms (which do not consider explicitly deadlock resolution).
