Abstract
Apparatuses and methods of operating such apparatuses are disclosed, where the apparatus provides ring buffer storage to hold queued elements. Multiple head pointers are stored and maintained with respect to the ring buffer, wherein the multiple head pointers have a multiplicity N. When a dequeuing operation is performed with respect to an element queued in the ring buffer, reference is made to a selected head pointer of the multiple head pointers and a slot index value is derived. An element held in a slot corresponding to the slot index value is dequeued and the value of the selected head pointer is increased by N. Support for concurrent dequeuing operations is thus provided, in that write contention for a single head pointer is avoided.
