Summary

In this chapter, we covered the causes of deadlocks in concurrent applications and implemented approaches to prevent them from occurring. Our examples have shown that concurrency cannot always be achieved straightforwardly and that some situations may require special handling. These discussions have prepared us for deadlocks in the real world and pointed us toward potential solutions.

In the next chapter, we will discuss another common problem in concurrent programming: starvation.
