You have to show us what you did and saw.

If you modify something an exclusive lock oh this thing is mandatory and there is no way top workaround this otherwise there could get anything and you will never know if it is valid or not.

small explanation...

1. why such exclusive lock hapeen?
To maintain the Data consistency & integrity in database.


2. Any technique in oracle to avoid such situation
If normalization of tables is done properly and code are designed properly we can avoid situation of dead lock. Most locking issues are application specifics. To resolve locking contention, one needs to free the resource by:

1. Asking the HOLDER to commit or rollback,
2. Killing the session which holds the lock,
SQL>ALTER SESSION KILL SESSION sid, serial#;
3. killing the shadow process from o/s.
4. By ROLLBACK FORCE or COMMIT FORCE in distributed transaction.

we would need much more information to truly help you. Oracle's locking and concurrency mechanisms are the best in the database world. It would be a rarer situation in which locks themselves were the culprit of your slowdowns. It is more likely an application desing issue.
