What is indefinite postponement?

What will be an ideal response?


Indefinite postponement is a state that occurs when a certain timing and ordering of events prevents a process or thread from making progress for an indeterminate amount of time. The most common reason for indefinite postponement is servicing requests in an order other than first-come-first-served. Priority schemes can suffer indefinite postponement as higher-priority processes or threads repeatedly preempt lower-priority processes or threads.
