Blocking Optimality in Distributed Real-Time Locking Protocols

Lower and upper bounds on the maximum priority inversion blocking (pi-blocking) that is generally unavoidable in distributed multiprocessor real-time locking protocols (where resources may be accessed only from specific synchronization processors) are established. Prior work on suspension-based shar...
