Another problem related to indefinite postponement is called ________. This occurs when a waiting thread (letâ s call this thread1) cannot proceed because itâ s waiting (either directly or indirectly) for another thread (letâ s call this thread2) to proceed, while simultaneously thread2 cannot proceed because itâ s waiting (either directly or indirectly) for thread1 to proceed. The two threads are waiting for each other, so the actions that would enable each thread to continue execution can never occur.

Answer:

"Deadlock" is the right solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A deadlock seems to be a circumstance where certain (two) computer algorithms that share a similar resource essentially prohibit each other during manipulating the asset, leading to both programs withdrawing to operate.
  • This occurs when multiple transfers or transactions block everyone by maintaining locks onto assets that every other activity also needs.

So that the above is the correct answer.
