Peterson's Algorithm
Peterson's algorithm (or Peterson's solution) is a concurrent programming algorithm for mutual exclusion that allows two or more processes to share a single-use resource without conflict, using only shared memory for communication. It was formulated by Gary L. Peterson in 1981.G. L. Peterson: "Myths About the Mutual Exclusion Problem", ''Information Processing Letters'' 12(3) 1981, 115–116 While Peterson's original formulation worked with only two processes, the algorithm can be generalized for more than two.As discussed in ''Operating Systems Review'', January 1990 ("Proof of a Mutual Exclusion Algorithm", M Hofri). The algorithm The algorithm uses two variables: flag and turn. A flag /code> value of true indicates that the process n wants to enter the critical section. Entrance to the critical section is granted for process P0 if P1 does not want to enter its critical section and if P1 has given priority to P0 by setting turn to 0. The algorithm satisfies the three essenti ...

Peterson Pipes
Peterson is an Irish pipe maker headquartered in Dublin and founded in 1865. History Friedrich and Heinrich Kapp, German immigrants to Ireland from Nuremberg, founded the famed Kapp Brothers store on Grafton Street, Dublin in 1865. Shortly thereafter, a Latvian immigrant, Charles Peterson, strolled into the Kapp workshop and declared that he could make better pipes than they could. Armed with an imaginative flair for pipes and a craftsman's background, Peterson not only proved himself correct, but became the third partner in the fledgling firm. Originally based at 53 Grafton Street the business moved to 56 Lower Sackville Street (now O'Connell Street) on the corner with Bachelors Walk shortly after the Easter Rising. The name ''Kapp & Peterson Ltd'' can still be seen on the parapet of this building and the letters KP are formed in timber paneling on the shopfront. Today, Peterson, run by Thomas Palmer, makes about 100,000 pipes annually, distributed all over the world. After ...
