| 40 | * This class implements synchronization primitives to solve the classic | |
| 41 | * readers/writers problem without allowing deadlock or starvation. | |
| 42 | * | |
| 43 | * <p> | |
| 44 | * Problem: Suppose multiple threads want to read and write to a resource. | |
| 45 | * Multiple readers can be active at a time, but only a single writer can | |
| 46 | * be active at a time, and no readers can be active while the writer is | |
| 47 | * active. | |
| 48 | * </p> | |
| 49 | * | |
| 50 | * <p> | |
| 51 | * We must be careful to avoid starvation in our solution, so that a steady | |
| 52 | * flow of reader threads cannot block waiting writer threads indefinitely. | |
| 53 | * This can be achieved by imposing an ordering on the incoming readers | |
| 54 | * and writers. | |
| 55 | * </p> | |
| 56 | * | |
| 57 | * <p> | |
| 58 | * To use this class, instantiate a ReaderWriterLock in the class holding | |
| 59 | * the shared resource. Any methods which read from the resource must call | |
| 60 | * startRead before reading and endRead after reading, and must not be | |
| 61 | * synchronized themselves. Similarly, any methods which write to the resource | |
| 62 | * must not be synchronized and must call startWrite before writing and endWrite | |
| 63 | * after writing. | |
| 64 | * </p> | |
| 65 | * | |
| 66 | * <p> | |
| 67 | * This class enforces that any readers and writers that are forced to wait | |
| 68 | * are allowed access to the shared resource in the order in which they arrive. | |
| 69 | * Groups of readers are allowed to proceed simultaneously, where each group | |
| 70 | * contains all waiting readers that arrived before the next waiting writer. | |
| 71 | * </p> | |
| 72 | * | |
| 73 | * <p> | |
| 74 | * This class is loosely adapted from the "Starvation-Free Readers and Writers | |
| 75 | * Monitor" available from Stephen J. Hartley (Drexel University) at: | |
| 76 | * http://www.mcs.drexel.edu/~shartley/ConcProgJava/monitors.html | |
| 77 | * We have imposed an ordering on the pending waiting readers and writers | |
| 78 | * using an ordered queue. | |
| 79 | * </p> | |
