Discussion
Consider what starvation means for a thread. Which statement is correct?
Answer: B
In starvation the system as a whole progresses but one thread keeps losing out, typically because greedy neighbours hold a shared lock most of the time. That is different from deadlock, where nothing progresses, and from livelock, where threads react to each other and stay busy achieving nothing.
