Prepare with commonly asked questions for this role
I would choose an Array if the primary requirement is fast, $O(1)$ random access to elements using an index, and if the total number of elements is known in advance or changes infrequently, as inserting or deleting elements in the middle of an array requires shifting elements, taking $O(n)$ time. I would choose a Linked List if the application requires frequent insertions and deletions, especially at the beginning or middle of the collection, as these operations take $O(1)$ time (assuming the node reference is known), despite the tradeoff that accessing an element by index takes $O(n)$ time.
A Deadlock is a state where two or more threads are permanently blocked, each waiting for a resource that is currently held by another thread in the same set. It requires four Coffman conditions to occur simultaneously: Mutual Exclusion, Hold and Wait, No Preemption, and Circular Wait. To prevent deadlocks, I would design the system to break at least one of these conditions. The most common and practical approach is breaking the Circular Wait condition by enforcing a strict global ordering of resource acquisition, ensuring all threads request locks in the exact same sequence.
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a connection-oriented protocol that guarantees the reliable, ordered, and error-checked delivery of a stream of bytes; it uses handshakes and acknowledgments, making it slightly slower but highly reliable (used for HTTP, SSH, FTP). UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a connectionless protocol that simply sends packets without guaranteeing delivery, order, or error recovery, making it significantly faster and highly efficient for real-time applications where a few dropped packets are acceptable (used for Video Streaming, VoIP, Online Gaming).
The CAP Theorem states that a distributed data store can only simultaneously provide two out of the following three guarantees: Consistency (every read receives the most recent write or an error), Availability (every request receives a non-error response, without guaranteeing it contains the most recent write), and Partition Tolerance (the system continues to operate despite an arbitrary number of network failures). Because network partitions (P) are unavoidable in distributed systems, engineers must fundamentally choose to prioritize either Consistency (CP) or Availability (AP) during a network failure.
A Hash Table is a data structure that stores key-value pairs. It uses a hash function to compute an index (a hash code) into an array of buckets, from which the desired value can be found in average $O(1)$ time. A collision occurs when the hash function maps two different keys to the exact same index. I would handle collisions using either Chaining (where each bucket holds a Linked List of entries that hash to the same index) or Open Addressing (where the table searches for the next available empty slot using probing sequences like linear probing, quadratic probing, or double hashing).
