Abstract: An out-of-order buffer includes an out-of-order queue and a controlling circuit. The out-of-order queue includes a request sequence table and a request storage device. The controlling circuit receives and temporarily stores the plural requests into the out-of-order queue. After the plural requests are transmitted to plural corresponding target devices, the controlling circuit retires the plural requests. The request sequence table contains m×n indicating units. The request sequence table contains m entry indicating rows. Each of the m entry indicating rows contains n indicating units. The request storage device includes m storage units corresponding to the m entry indicating rows in the request sequence table. The state of indicating whether one request is stored in the corresponding storage unit of the m storage units is recoded in the request sequence table. The storage sequence of the plural requests is recoded in the request sequence table.

Abstract: A computer receives, at a target node, a replication target update, wherein the replication target update comprises a write frequency of a replication target and a size of the replication target. The computer creates a replication task to perform replication based upon the replication target update. The computer calculates a priority value of the replication task wherein the priority value is based upon the write frequency of the replication target and the size of the replication target. The computer inserts the replication task into a priority queue. The computer processes the replication task.
