Question 721
When transaction T​ i​ requests a data item currently held by T​ j​ , T​ j​ is allowed to wait only if it has a timestamp smaller than that of T​ j​ (that is, T​ i​ older than T​ j​ ). Otherwise, T​ i​ is rolled back(dies). this is
A
Wait-die
B
Wait-wound
C
Wound-Wait
D
Wait
Question 721 Explanation: 
Wait-die scheme​ :
It is a non-preemptive technique for deadlock prevention. When transaction T​ i​ requests a data item currently held by T​ j​ , T​ i​ is allowed to wait only if it has a timestamp smaller than that of
T​ j​ (That is T​ i​ is older than T​ j​ ), otherwise T​ i​ is rolled back (dies).
→ In this scheme, if a transaction requests to lock a resource (data item), which is already held with a conflicting lock by another transaction, then one of the two possibilities may occur
1. If TS(T​ i​ ) < TS(T​ j​ ) − that is T​ i​ , which is requesting a conflicting lock, is older than T​ j −then Ti is allowed to wait until the data-item is available.
2. If TS(T​ i​ ) > TS(T​ j​ ) − that is T​ i​ is younger than T​ j​ − then T​ i​ dies. T​ i​ is restarted later with a random delay but with the same timestamp.
→ This scheme allows the older transaction to wait but kills the younger one.
Example:
Suppose that transaction T22, T23, T24 have time-stamps 5, 10 and 15 respectively. If T22 requests a data item held by T23 then T22 will wait. If T24 requests a data item held by T23, then T24 will be rolled back.
