Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Race conditions occur when multiple processes or threads attempt to access or modify shared resources, such as memory, at the same time. This can result in unpredictable or incorrect behavior, as the order in which the processes execute their operations can change the outcome. Deadlocks occur when multiple processes are blocked waiting for each other to release resources, while competing writes and mixed writes are more specific problems that can also arise from concurrent access to shared memory.
