Try these it might help you 1. Acquire resources in the same order to avoid deadlocks. 2. Ensure tasks don't create circular dependencies on resources. 3. Use semaphores/mutexes to manage resource access. 4. Minimize nested resource locking. 5. Implement timeouts for resource acquisition. 6. Assign appropriate task priorities. 7. Prefer static resource allocation. 8. Thoroughly test and debug the system.
