What are race conditions and how can they be mitigated in a multithreaded program? Discuss the importance of synchronization mechanisms.

Is it possible for a single single-threaded process to become blocked in a state of deadlock, in your opinion? Could you provide further details or expand upon your response in the subsequent sentence?

Considering problems such as Bounded-Buffer, Readers-Writers, and Dining-Philosophers Problems, explain how they work on the process synchronization.

What is deadlock in multithreading, and how can it be prevented or resolved?

Can a single process get stalled in the middle of execution? Your answers should make sense and adhere to logic.

Provide an explanation for the phenomenon of phantom appendages. Why is it possible that despite the use of the two-phase synchronization scheme, this phenomenon could contribute to inappropriate concurrent execution?

What are the four requirements that must be satisfied in the realm of computer science for there to be a deadlock?

What is a race condition, and how does it occur in the context of concurrent programming?

If you want to compare the task of baking a cake to anything you may encounter while using a parallel computer, think of it as the equivalent of computing three iterations of a loop. Explore the cake-making process in search of parallelism at both the data and task levels, and provide an explanation for their presence.

In the context of semaphores, an atomic operation:   options: a must be implemented on a device that has been "hardened" against disruption by cosmic radiation b can be combined with other atomic operations into what are commonly known as molecules c will cause a signal to be thrown if run on a machine with an insufficient number of processors d is a sequence of two or more operations that can only be executed as a single unit
