Question

Hello. Please answer the attached Operating Systems question correctly and completely.

*If you answer the question correctly and completely, I will give you a thumbs up. Thanks.

Please answer the following Operating Systems Question, Correctly and Completely:
Suppose four cars each approach an intersection from four different directions
simultaneously. Each corner of the intersection has a stop sign. Assume that traffic
regulations require that when two cars approach adjacent stop signs at the same time, the
car on the left must yield to the car on the right. Thus, as four cars each drive up to their
individual stop signs, each waits (indefinitely) for the car on the left to proceed.
Is this anomaly a communication deadlock? Is it a resource deadlock?
* Please answer correctly and I will provide a Thumbs Up. Thanks.
