I believe I read it in Java Concurrency in Practice.Philipp said:I'd be interested in a reference for that. Can you remember where you
read it?
Thanks Phil
Practicing some advanced Google-Fu, I found this:
From <http://www.embedded-computing.com/news/db/?9717> > Race condition
defects have been responsible for some of the most notorious failures in
software. For example, race conditions in the software of the Therac-25
radiation ther-apy machine were cited as contributing to the death of
five patients.
Which lead me to the Wikipedia artical about the Therac itself.
