It Means Say, $B$ is the total number of processes that will be allowed to enter the CS and after that only P1 will enter. Here, we have $B=0$, i.e no process can enter the CS hence BW is satisfied. BW and Deadlock are independent of each other . 0 votes 0 votes Prashant. commented May 1, 2017 reply Follow Share What if P0 always get CS and not P1. 0 votes 0 votes Kapil commented May 1, 2017 reply Follow Share Then, in that case if we have designed synch. mechanism like that ,then BW is not satisfied. u r right . 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
