Mutual exclusion: Science, Enforcing mutual exclusion & Types of mutual exclusion devices

In computer science, mutual exclusion is a property of concurrency control, which is instituted for the purpose of preventing race conditions. It is the requirement that one thread of execution never enters a critical section while a concurrent thread of execution is already accessing said critical section, which refers to an interval of time during…
