+text {* (* ddd *)
+  The nature of the work is like this: since it starts from a very simple and basic 
+  model, even intuitively very `basic` and `obvious` properties need to derived from scratch.
+  For instance, the fact 
+  that one thread can not be blocked by two critical resources at the same time
+  is obvious, because only running threads can make new requests, if one is waiting for 
+  a critical resource and get blocked, it can not make another resource request and get 
+  blocked the second time (because it is not running). 
+
+  To derive this fact, one needs to prove by contraction and 
+  reason about time (or @{text "moement"}). The reasoning is based on a generic theorem
+  named @{text "p_split"}, which is about status changing along the time axis. It says if 
+  a condition @{text "Q"} is @{text "True"} at a state @{text "s"},
+  but it was @{text "False"} at the very beginning, then there must exits a moment @{text "t"} 
+  in the history of @{text "s"} (notice that @{text "s"} itself is essentially the history 
+  of events leading to it), such that @{text "Q"} switched 
+  from being @{text "False"} to @{text "True"} and kept being @{text "True"}
+  till the last moment of @{text "s"}.
+
+  Suppose a thread @{text "th"} is blocked
+  on @{text "cs1"} and @{text "cs2"} in some state @{text "s"}, 
+  since no thread is blocked at the very beginning, by applying 
+  @{text "p_split"} to these two blocking facts, there exist 
+  two moments @{text "t1"} and @{text "t2"}  in @{text "s"}, such that 
+  @{text "th"} got blocked on @{text "cs1"} and @{text "cs2"} 
+  and kept on blocked on them respectively ever since.
+ 
+  Without lost of generality, we assume @{text "t1"} is earlier than @{text "t2"}.
+  However, since @{text "th"} was blocked ever since memonent @{text "t1"}, so it was still
+  in blocked state at moment @{text "t2"} and could not
