Abstract
An apparatus is provided with a first and a second first in, first out storage structure (FIFO) that are correspondingly associated with a first and a second resource. The apparatus is further provided with first and second control logic correspondingly coupled to the first and the second FIFO to write a first and a second control value into a first and a second current write storage location of the first and the second FIFO respectively when the first resource is assigned with a first task. The first and second control logic further write the second and the first control value into a third and a fourth current write storage location of the first and the second FIFO respectively when the second resource is assigned with a second task. Together, the elements enable the resources to cooperatively generate results for the sink process.
