• Threads T1 and T2 are executing the same procedure using the same variables in and out.

• Threads can be interrupted anywhere.

• Race condition - the output depends on the way the threads are interleaved.

Shared variables in, out;

Procedure Echo();

read( in, keyboard );

out := in;

write( out, screen );

end Echo;
