Abstract
In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes a method that includes initializing a queue for a master thread. A cyclic pointer buffer is created based on heap variables in arguments in the master thread. At least one heap variable is passed from the master thread to a slave thread. A pointer for the master thread is exchanged with a pointer for an entry in the buffer. The entry in the buffer is indicated as being available for processing by the slave thread.
