Zusammenfassung:A computer-implemented method is provided. The method includes determining whether a rejection of a request is required and determining whether the request is software forward progress (SFP)-likely or SFP-unlikely upon determining that the rejection of the request is required. The method also includes executing a first pseudo random decision to set or not set a requested state of the request in an event the request is SFP-likely or SFP-unlikely, respectively, and rejecting the request following execution of the second pseudo random decision.
