ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a system for queuing elements, such as print jobs. A processing unit receives an element that is associated with a first factor and a second factor, such as data type and a priority within the data type, that indicates a priority of the element. For each first factor and second factor pair, an entry point addresses a point in the queue associated with the first factor and second factor. The processing unit locates an entry point addressing a point in the queue associated with a first factor and second factor that matches the first factor and second factor associated with the received element. The processing unit then inserts the received element in the queue at the entry point.
