Abstract
An electronic storage buffer (22) is efficiently used by dividing the buffer into a first (26) and second (28) storage area with a dynamically adjustable boundary (24) governing the respective sizes of each storage area. If the first storage area becomes full with data, the first storage area can be expanded and the second storage area can be reduced to utilize the empty space in the second storage area. Conversely, the second storage area can be expanded and the first storage area can be reduced to satisfy the data storage demands of the second storage area.
