Answer: In operating system a code segment which accesses some shared variables or resources one at a time atomically such other no other code or process is accessing that resource or variable at the same time.
Entry section code block allows the access to the shared resource or variable and exit section code signals the termination from access to the shared resource or variable.
Explanation:
Entry and exit section codes needs to check certain properties before allowing the access and removal of access to a particular code segment.
These conditions are:
1. Bounded waiting.
2. Mutual exclusion.
3. checking thread execution status to allows other threads to enter the critical section (CS).
Answer:
polymorphic
Explanation:
An example of polymorphic reference, suppose you have 3 classes: Main, Product and SpecificProduct. If SpecificProduct extends Product this means it is a product class but with something else to complement.
Say you want to reference an object of product in the main class, you can do it the classic way:
Product pd = new Product();
Or you can do it polymorphic, like this:
Product pd = new SpecificProduct();
The program will accept just fine because SpecificProduct is extending Product. When you do it like this, we say the reference you made was a polymorphic reference
