Redo The Page Body

the article shows 1 algorithm and later says it's susceptible to deadlock when in fact it does not. This is because that algorithm is a modification of the original Maekawa's Algorithm.

What should be done is:

  • display original algorithm which is susceptible to deadlock
  • show why it deadlocks
  • display the modified algorithm that prevents deadlock
