Step-by-Step Analysis
The question asks to match each deadlock recovery method with its corresponding trade-off. We have three methods and six potential trade-offs to consider. Option 1: Process Termination. This method stops one or more deadlocked processes to break the cycle. The principal downside is the loss of any progress those terminated processes had made and the wasted CPU time spent on their computation up to termination. This aligns with the trade-off: 'Can lead to loss of progress and wasted CPU time.' Note that while termination may indirectly affect throughput, the explicit stated conseque......Login to view full explanation
