Abstract

The desire for a better utilisation of resources and an acceleration of computing introduced the concept of parallelism with all its difficulties. Soon the danger of eternal delays of processes was discovered and called deadlock. For almost twenty years a lot of publications have dealt with problems considering deadlocks or their environment.Here we want to give a classification of our collected publications. We do not claim that this collection is complete in any sense, but we hope to have found essential articles (underlined) for nearly all the different topics fitting under the title "Deadlock".This classification regards different aspects of the problem and cannot always be given unambigiously so that many publications are listed several times. We would appreciate to get knowledge of other interesting articles or textbooks to this theme.
