1. Mutual exclusion: At least one resource must be held in a non-sharable mode, meaning only one process can use it at a time.
2. Hold and wait: Processes must hold resources already allocated to them while waiting to acquire additional resources.
3. No preemption: Resources cannot be forcibly taken away from a process; they must be released voluntarily.
4. Circular wait: A cycle of processes exists, where each process is waiting for a resource held by the next process in the cycle.
