Emergence of multicore systems has put greater emphasis on developing novel techniques for concurrency problems, because
A) some fundamentally new concurrency problems have arisen that cannot be solved using traditional techniques such as mutex locks, semaphores, and monitors.
B) race conditions are much more difficult to solve in multicore systems.
C) deadlocks are much more difficult to prevent or avoid in multicore systems.
D) with increased number of processing cores, there is an increased risk of race conditions and deadlocks.
