Implementing High-Performance Queues with Disruptor
Disruptor is a high-performence inter-thread messaging library developed by LMAX. It's widely used in projects like Log4j2 and Storm for its exceptional throughput characteristics.
Ring Buffer Architecture
Disruptor employs a ring buffer structure with several performence advantages:
Array-based storage: Uses fixed-size arrays instead of linke ...

Queue Implementation in C Using Linked Lists
Queue Implementation in C Using Linked Lists
A queue is a fundamental data structure that follows the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle. This article presents a complete implementation of a queue using linked lists in C.

Python Multiprocessing: fork(), Process Class, Pool, and Queue Communication
Process vs Program
A program is code that has been written but not yet executed. When code is running, it becomes a process. A process contains not only the executable code but also the runtime environment and system resources.
In operating systems, a process is the smallest unit of resource allocation.
Creating Processes with fork()
The os mod ...

Implementing Queue and Stack Using Basic Data Structures
Stack and Queue Fundamentals
A stack operates on a last-in-first-out (LIFO) principle, whereas a queue follows a first-in-first-out (FIFO) approach.
Both stack and queue are fundamental data structures available in the Standard Template Library (STL).
There are three widely recognized implementations of STL:
HP STL: The initial implementation ...

Implementing a Circular Queue (Ring Buffer) in C
While learning about driver development, I encountered the concept of a ring buffer (also called a circular buffer). This data structure shares remarkable similarities with the queue abstract data type, making it an excellent opportunity to refresh fundamental knowledge about queues.
A ring buffer proves invaluable when the application layer ca ...

Fundamentals of Stack and Queue Data Structures
Fundamentals of Stack and Queue Data StructuresStack Data StructureConceptA stack is a specialized linear data structure that permits insertion and deletion operations only at one fixed end, known as the top. The opposite end is called the bottom. Elements in a stack follow the Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) principle. The insertion operation is call ...

Understanding FIFO and LIFO Data Structures in Java
Introduction to FIFO and LIFO
In computer science, FIFO (First-In-First-Out) and LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) represent two fundamental approaches to organizing and managing data. These structures are widely used in various applications, from task scheduling to expression evaluation. Java provides built-in classes that make implementing these patte ...

Implementing Stack and Queue with Fixed-Size Arrays in C, C#, and C++
Stacks and queue are foundational linear data structures governed by LIFO and FIFO principles, respectively. This article demonstrates how to implement both using static arrays in C, C#, and C++—with redesigned logic, renamed identifiers, and structural variations while preserving correctness and clarity.
Array-Based Stack Implementation
