Concurrent Programming with Harmony

Appendix H. Peterson's Algorithm In 1981, Gary L. Peterson came up with a beautiful solution to the mutual exclusion problem, now known as ``Peterson's Algorithm'' [37]. Figure 5.6 presents the algorithm. Why does it work? We will focus here on how one might go about proving mutual exclusion for an algorithm such as Peterson's. It turns out that doing so is not trivial. You have to understand a little bit about how the Harmony virtual machine (HVM) works. In Chapter 4 we talked about the concep

A fixed-size sliding window maintains a constant size as it moves through the data structure. This is useful for problems like finding the maximum sum of a subarray of size k, or calculating moving averages. Variable Size Window A variable-size sliding window can expand or contract based on certain conditions. This technique is often used when you need to find the optimal subarray that satisfies specific criteria. Common Applications:

The newest concerning variant of covid-19 is rapidly advancing across the U.S. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that NB.1.8.1 has started to supplant other circulating strains of the coronavirus. According to the CDC’s latest Nowcast, covering the last two weeks through June 7, NB.1.8.1 is likely causing 37% of all covid-19 cases in the U.S., just barely behind the current dominant variant, LP.8.1 (38%).

While COVID-19 transmission remains low in the US, health experts are anxious about the potential for a big summer wave as two factors seem set for a collision course: a lull in infection activity that suggests protective responses have likely waned in the population, and a new SARS-CoV-2 variant with an infectious advantage over other variants. The new variant is dubbed NB.1.8.1. Like all the other currently circulating variants, it's a descendant of omicron. Specifically, NB.1.8.1 is derived
