ABSTRACT:
The present invention reduces the overhead commonly associated with computer queues by not requiring direct addressing of each location in the queue and by not requiring specialized underflow logic. Furthermore, reads and writes to the computer queue of the present invention can be asynchronous. Lastly, the computer queue of the present invention requires less circuitry and is thus physically smaller, requires less power to operate and can operate more quickly than can queues of the prior art.
