Distributed System – Banker’s Algorithm
Distributed systems have a banker’s algorithm which serves as a deadlock avoidance algorithm. Bankers algorithm depicts the resource allocation strategy which can help in determining the availability of resources in the present or future and how these availability of resources will lead a Bankers’ system to go into deadlock. Different data structures can be used to implement the banker’s algorithm.
