Difference between Lock (computer science) and Reentrancy (computing)

Lock (computer science) vs. Reentrancy (computing)

In computer science, a lock or mutex (from mutual exclusion) is a synchronization mechanism for enforcing limits on access to a resource in an environment where there are many threads of execution. In computing, a computer program or subroutine is called reentrant if it can be interrupted in the middle of its execution and then safely be called again ("re-entered") before its previous invocations complete execution.

Similarities between Lock (computer science) and Reentrancy (computing)

Lock (computer science) and Reentrancy (computing) have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): C (programming language), C11 (C standard revision), Linearizability, Multiprocessing, Race condition.

C (programming language)

C (as in the letter ''c'') is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations.

C11 (C standard revision)

C11 (formerly C1X) is an informal name for ISO/IEC 9899:2011, the current standard for the C programming language.

Linearizability

In concurrent programming, an operation (or set of operations) is atomic, linearizable, indivisible or uninterruptible if it appears to the rest of the system to occur at once without being interrupted.

Multiprocessing

Multiprocessing is the use of two or more central processing units (CPUs) within a single computer system.

Race condition

A race condition or race hazard is the behavior of an electronics, software, or other system where the output is dependent on the sequence or timing of other uncontrollable events.

The list above answers the following questions

Lock (computer science) and Reentrancy (computing) Comparison

Lock (computer science) has 69 relations, while Reentrancy (computing) has 36. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 4.76% = 5 / (69 + 36).
