His explanation is wrong.


When a person does bodybuilding, the number of his muscle cells remains the same compared to a person who does bodybuilding, the difference is that his cells will become bigger, and that is why the muscles take on an appearance bigger when a person does weightlifting.

Does peterson's solution to the mutual-exclusion problem shown in fig. 2-24 work when process scheduling is preemptive
Sloan [31]
<span>Yes. Not only does Peterson's Solution work with preemptive scheduling, but it was designed for that very case. In fact, when scheduling is non-preemptive, there is a possibility it might fail.
