Java Multithreading and Parallel Programming Masterclass - Dining Philosophers Problem

The lecture discusses the dining philosophers problem, a synchronization challenge involving concurrent threads and limited resources. It explains the problem's constraints, potential deadlock scenarios, and a solution using semaphores to limit thread access. The video includes a code implementation and testing, concluding with suggestions for further exploration.

What happens when all philosophers try to eat at the same time?

Describe the process each philosopher follows in the code implementation.

How can the picking order of forks affect the outcome of the problem?

What are the potential solutions to the synchronization problem presented in the lecture?
