Hi this is har. Race conditions is a severe way crashing the server/ system at times. Generally this problem arises in priority less systems or the users who has eqal priority will be put to this problem. Race condition is a situation in which a resource D is to be serviced to a process A and the processB which holds the resoure C is to be given to the process A. So a cyclic chain occurs and no way the resources will be get shared and also the systems with equal prirority wont get the resoure so that the system wont come out of the blocked state due to race condition!

Race around condition isconcerned with RS flip flops in the output Q of flip flop doesnot remain stable. It keeps fluctuatingbetween1 and 0. it can be overcomed by usingJK flip flop.

when we put j=1 and k=1 in j-k flip flop, the output, Q
toggles to 0 and 1 continuously; and it becomes uncertain to predict the output. This condition is known as Race around condition. It can be rectified using Master-Slave flip flop.

after applying the clock the output must be changed only once, but it change continuously until the clock remains 1. this condition is called as race around condition. it can be eliminated by J-K master slave configuration.

in JK flip flop when both inputs are high (J & K) the output switches between 1 and 0 (toggle condition) continuously. this is known as race around condition.
