#Top 10 List of Week 07

1. Basically Everything we discuss this week
   This Computerphile video apparently discusses everything since last week, whoops
2. Critical Section
   A video explaining briefly about critical sections and it’s problems. The guy reminds me of Pavel for some reason.
3. Dekker’s and Peterson’s Algorithms
   literally the only good explaination video I can find about Dekker’s and Peterson’s Algorithm.
4. Semaphores
   A pretty graphic way of what a semaphore is, how to use it, why we use it, and why it’s diffrent from regular mutexes
5. Bounded Buffer
   A video explaining the Bounded Buffer problem, and some of it’s solutions.
6. Dining Philosophers
   A short and fast explanation on the Dining Philosophers’ Problem, and it’s solution. The guy looks like OzzyManReviews
7. Banker’s Algorithm
   I give up searching for a video for this one. GFG does it pretty well anyways. Kind of a long read, tho
8. Deadlock
   All the 5W+H on deadlock and it’s avoidance strategies.
9. Race Conditions and How To Prevent Them
   A much simpler explaination of Race Conditions and Dekker’s Algo.
10. Semaphore vs Mutex
    A graphical comparison of Semaphores and Mutexes
