Question

The pseudocode of Figure 6.16 illustrates the basic push() and pop() operations of an array-based stack. Assuming that this algorithm could be used in a concurrent environment, answer the following 
questions:
a. What data have a race condition?
b. How could the race condition be fixed?

 

push(item) {
if (top < SIZE) {
stack [top]
top++;
}
item;
%3D
else
ERROR
}
pop () {
if (!is empty ()) {
top--;
return stack[top];
}
else
ERROR
}
is empty() {
if (top == 0)
return true;
else
return false;
Figure 6.16 Array-based stack for Exercise 6.12.
