Description: Interference is a phenomenon that occurs in computational systems and networks where multiple processes or threads interact in such a way that they affect each other’s performance. This effect can manifest in various forms, such as resource contention, network congestion, or latency in task execution. In the context of networks, interference can be caused by traffic overload, where multiple devices attempt to communicate simultaneously, resulting in packet loss and decreased quality of service. In various computational environments, interference can arise when several execution threads compete for access to shared resources, leading to race conditions and deadlocks. Proper management of interference is crucial for optimizing system performance and efficiency, and various techniques, such as concurrent programming and task prioritization, can be employed to mitigate its negative effects.
