The Critical section problem occurs when the processors are in a Network. For eg consider that 3 processors share same database at a time, if one processor wants to update the database then no other process will get the access to that database. This point is called as critical section. Temporarily the connection between the other 2 system will be dropped.

What is the importance of implementing a critical section in operating systems for ensuring proper synchronization and preventing race conditions?

Implementing a critical section in operating systems is important for ensuring proper synchronization and preventing race conditions. A critical section is a part of the code that can only be accessed by one process at a time, which helps avoid conflicts and ensure that data is accessed and modified correctly. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the system and preventing issues that can arise from multiple processes trying to access the same resources simultaneously.

Difference between critical and non critical task in real time system?

the difference in critical and non critical task in a system is critical task are processes that the computer needs to operate correctly they are must have programs. Non critical talk are task that are running or can run but is not a crusial part if the task is deleted or ended then the OS should still fuction properly


Shared data problem in embedded system?

if a variable is used by multiple tasks or processes, conflict arises.the variable value will become inconsistent. solutions are to disable interrupts when critical region starts execution, using semaphores.
