Extracted text: Instructions: Analyze the illustrations below. Then, answer the following items. Search for related literature and/or relative studies that would support your answers. Cite your references accordingly. Progress of Q Release A Pand Q want A Release Required B Get A 3 Deadlock inevitable B Pand Q Required want B Get B 4 Progress of P Get A Get B Release A Release B 2 = Both P and Q want resource A A = Both P and Q want resource B Required B Required = Deadlock-inevitable region Possible progress path of P and Q. Horizontal portion of path indicates P is executing and Q is waiting. Vertical portion of path indicates Q is executing and P is waiting. 1. Describe the deadlock scenario illustrated above based on your understanding. 2. What do you think would happen if both Process P and Q need to get the same resource? 3. Which concurency mechanism would you suggest that might prevent the deadlock situation above? Rationalize your answer. 4. Define in detail the Execution Paths 2 to 6. Example: Execution Path 1- Process Q acquires Resource B and then Resource A. Process Q then releases Resource B and A, respectively. 5. Do Execution Paths 3 and 4 encompass the first three conditions for a deadlock to occur? Explain your answer.
