Critical section is?

Answer Posted / vaibhav

In concurrent programming, critical section is a piece of
code that accesses a shared resource(data structure or
device) that must not be concurrently accessed by more than
one thread of execution. A critical section will usually
terminate in fixed time, and a thread, task or process will
have to wait for a fixed time to enter it, which is called
as bounded waiting.
