  • Patent number: 10140128
    Abstract: A parallelized multiple dispatch ordered queue including an ordered queue, qualify logic, ordered select logic, and dispatch logic. The ordered queue stores candidates in order from oldest to youngest into multiple entries. The ordered queue is divided into N groups in which an i'th group includes every i'th entry of every N entries of the ordered queue, wherein i is an integer less than or equal to N. The qualify logic determines whether any candidate is ready to be dispatched. The ordered select logic respectively determines the oldest candidate in each group that is ready to be dispatched. The dispatch logic dispatches the oldest ready candidates in parallel. The shift logic shifts the stored candidates in the ordered queue to fill any vacant entries between remaining ones of the stored candidates without changing an order of the remaining ones of the stored candidates in the ordered queue. The ordered queue may have any size or depth and N is any suitable integer determining the number of candidates (e.g.
