    Semaphore (programming) - Wikipedia

    • In computer science, a semaphore is a variable or abstract data type used to control access to a common resource by multiple threads and avoid critical section problems in a concurrent system such as a multitasking operating system. Semaphores are a type of synchronization primitive. A trivial semaphore is a plain variable that is changed (for example, i… See more

    Semantics and implementation

    Counting semaphores are equipped with two operations, historically denoted as P and V (see § Operation names for alternative names). Operation V increments the semaphore S, and operation P decrement… See more

    Examples

    Consider a variable A and a boolean variable S. A is only accessed when S is marked true. Thus, S is a semaphore for A.
    One can imagine a stoplight signal (S) just before a train station (A). In this case, if the signal is gr… See more

    Operation names

    The canonical names V and P come from the initials of Dutch words. V is generally explained as verhogen ("increase"). Several explanations have been offered for P, including proberen ("to test" or "to try"), passeren ("… See more

    What is a semaphore in programming?
    A semaphore is a powerful tool in programming used to control access to a common resource in a concurrent system, like an operating system or a multi-threaded application. It's like a manager that orchestrates which threads can enter a section of code that shouldn't be accessed by multiple threads at the same time.

    What are semaphore operations?
    Semaphore Operations: The .acquire() method checks if entering a code section is safe, while .release() frees up a space for others. Use Cases: They're great for controlling database access, managing API requests, and ensuring printers don't get jammed with multiple jobs.

    How does semaphore work?
    The above illustration shows a simple semaphore workflow: a semaphore state begins available (1), becomes in use (0) when a thread acquires it, and then available again (1) once the thread releases it, allowing the next waiting thread to proceed.

    Is a semaphore a 'down' or 'up' in Java?
    (Using the terminology from java.util.concurrent.Semaphore given the Java tag. Some of these details are implementation-specific. I suspect your "down" is the Java semaphore's acquire() method, and your "up" is release().) Yes, your last call to acquire() will block until another thread calls release() or your thread is interrupted.

    What is the difference between a semaphore and an alternative?
    A personal view is that a semaphore is just the simplest implementation which does the job and employs 'atomic' or 'atomicised' instructions. More modern alternatives will do the same job by the same underlying means, but will wrap them up differently for easier application to a programming problem.
