Concurrency involves the simultaneous execution of multiple instruction sequences within an operating system, which can lead to issues such as resource depletion and deadlocks. Key problems include sharing global resources, optimal resource allocation, locating programming errors, and inefficient channel locking. Distributed processing, which divides complex tasks among multiple machines, is utilized in various applications including telecommunications, social networks, and online services.

CONCURRENCY

Concurrency is the simultaneous execution of several


instruction sequences. When multiple process threads are
active at once, it occurs in the operating system. The threads
of the active process constantly exchange messages or share
memory with one another. Due to resource sharing,
concurrency can lead to issues like resource depletion and
deadlocks.

It helps in techniques like coordinating execution of


processes, memory allocation and execution scheduling for
maximizing throughput.
PRINCIPLES OF
CONCURRENCY :
Both interleaved and overlapped processes
can be viewed as examples of concurrent
processes, they both present the same
problems.

The relative speed of execution cannot be


predicted. It depends on the following:

The activities of other processes


The way operating system handles interrupts
·The scheduling policies of the operating system
PROBLEMS IN CONCURRENCY :
01 ·Sharing global resources –
03 Locating programming errors –

02 Optimal allocation of resources – 04 Locking the channel –


SHARING
GLOBAL
RESOURCES –
Sharing of global resources safely is
difficult. If two processes both make use
of a global variable and both perform
read and write on that variable, then the
order in which various read and write are
executed is critical.
OPTIMAL
ALLOCATION OF
RESOURCES –

It is difficult for the operating


system to manage the
allocation of resources
optimally.
Locating programming errors –

·It is very difficult to locate a


programming error because reports
are usually not reproducible.

Locking the channel –


It may be inefficient for the
operating system to simply lock
the channel and prevents its use
by other processes.
·Distributed processing is a phrase used to describe a
variety of computer systems that use more than one
computer to run an application. This includes parallel
processing, in which a single computer uses multiple
MULTIPROCESSING processors to execute programs. It also refers to local-
area networks designed so that a single program can run
simultaneously at various sites.
Distributed processing takes a complex computing
task and divides it among a network of individual
machines (or nodes), which then complete their part
of the task and send it back to be compiled into one
seamless output.
TELEPHONE AND
CELLULAR NETWORKS

·are also examples of distributed networks.


Telephone networks have been around for
over a century and it started as an early
example of a peer to peer network. Cellular
networks are distributed networks with base
stations physically distributed in areas called
cells.
SOCIAL NETWORKS,
MOBILE SYSTEMS, ONLINE
BANKING, AND ONLINE
GAMING

ALSO USE EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTED


SYSTEMS. ADDITIONAL AREAS OF
APPLICATION FOR DISTRIBUTED
COMPUTING INCLUDE E-LEARNING
PLATFORMS, ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE, AND E-COMMERCE.
