Cleanup date September 2010 An Ostrich Policy relate to the inability of governments or people to acknowledge that a real problem or danger exist. Many African governments have been accused of an Ostrich Policy concerning the AIDS pandemic , of which Thabo Mbeki Thabo Mbeki s speech at the Opening Session of the 13th International AIDS Conference on July 9, 2000 in Durban, South Africa s Thabo Mbeki cite note 52 president is probably the most notable. According to African folklore , an ostrich prefer to close its eyes and hide its head in a bush or hole in the ground when facing danger. Since the ostrich can no longer see the danger, it believes that the danger no longer exists and that it is safe from the consequences of the danger, whilst the bulk of its body remains in the open and thus vulnerable to the original danger. An Ostrich Policy is therefore the inability to act appropriately to avert danger or the inevitable consequences thereof.

otheruses2 ostrich In computer science , the ostrich algorithm is a strategy of ignoring potential problems on the basis that they may be exceedingly rare to stick your head in the sand and pretend that there is no problem . This assumes that it is more cost effective to allow the problem to occur than to attempt its prevention. This approach may be used in dealing with deadlock s in concurrent programming if deadlocks are believed to be very rare, and if the cost of detection or prevention is high. Trade offs Convenience Correctness It is one of the methods of dealing with deadlocks. Other methods are avoidance banker s algorithm , prevention, detection and recovery. Some algorithms with poor worst case performance are commonly used because they only exhibit poor performance on artificial cases that do not occur in practice typical examples are the simplex algorithm and the type checking algorithm for Standard ML . Issues like integer overflow in programming languages with fixed width integers are also frequently ignored because they occur only in exceptional cases that don t arise for practical inputs. Hybrid Approach Hybrid approach to using Ostrich algorithm is determining that the exceedingly rare case does not happen, and then switching from another costly algorithm to this one. The trade off here is that if circumstances change or are unaccounted for, the rare problem may re occur. An example can be found in the Non Hard Locking ReadWriteLocker http nohardlockrwlocker.codeplex.com site, where you have the option to determine where deadlocks might occur, and then turn off deadlock detection once you determine it doesn t need to be used.
