Abstract
A method for preventing deadlock in a distributed computing system includes the steps of: receiving as input a sorted set of containers defining a unique global sequence of containers for servicing process requests; populating at least one table based at least in part on off-line analysis of call graphs defining corresponding transactions for a given order of the containers in the sorted set; storing within each container at least a portion of the table; and allocating one or more threads in a given container according to at least a portion of the table stored within the given container.
