From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
deadlock n.   1. [techspeak] A situation wherein two or more    processes are unable to proceed because each is waiting for one of    the others to do something.   A common example is a program    communicating to a server, which may find itself waiting for output    from the server before sending anything more to it, while the server    is similarly waiting for more input from the controlling program    before outputting anything.   (It is reported that this particular    flavor of deadlock is sometimes called a `starvation deadlock',    though the term `starvation' is more properly used for situations    where a program can never run simply because it never gets high    enough priority.   Another common flavor is `constipation', in which    each process is trying to send stuff to the other but all buffers    are full because nobody is reading anything.)   See {deadly embrace}.    2. Also used of deadlock-like interactions between humans, as when    two people meet in a narrow corridor, and each tries to be polite by    moving aside to let the other pass, but they end up swaying from    side to side without making any progress because they always move    the same way at the same time.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
deadlock          A situation where two or more       {processes} are unable to proceed because each is waiting for       one of the others to do something.          A common example is a program waiting for output from a server       while the server is waiting for more input from the       controlling program before outputting anything.   It is       reported that this particular flavour of deadlock is sometimes       called a "starvation deadlock", though the term "starvation"       is more properly used for situations where a program can never       run simply because it never gets high enough priority.          Another common flavour is "constipation", in which each       process is trying to send stuff to the other but all buffers       are full because nobody is reading anything).   See {deadly       embrace}.          Another example, common in {database} programming, is two       processes that are sharing some resource (e.g. read access to       a {table}) but then both decide to wait for exclusive       (e.g. write) access.          The term "deadly embrace" is mostly synonymous, though usually       used only when exactly two processes are involved.   This is       the more popular term in Europe, while {deadlock} predominates       in the United States.          Compare: {livelock}.   See also {safety property}, {liveness       property}.          [{Jargon File}]          (2000-07-26)
