buffer store

Bodies come into the section on a conveyor and are directed automatically into a buffer store.

Used to handle irregular supplies of parts from upstream equipment, creating a buffer store and smooth flow for further processes.

When they have finished their work on one body, they activate the conveyor which carries off the completed body and pulls in another from the buffer store.

Decoded Picture Buffer, a buffer storing decoded video frames used by video decoders.

Buffering stores until retirement avoids WAW and WAR dependencies but introduces a new issue.

In addition to buffering stores until retirement, the store queue serves a second purpose: forwarding data from completed but not-yet-retired ("in-flight") stores to later loads.

In a Flexible Rake Receiver, signal reception is performed with a single correlator engine and a stream buffer storing the entire delay spread of baseband input/output (I/O) samples.

The scene to be rendered is first rasterized onto a number of buffers storing different types of data to be used in rendering the scene, such as depth, normal direction, and diffuse color.

Long a part of high-end CD players, the buffer stores data from a spinning CD on a chip, then rapidly dips into this electronic music reservoir to cover gaps in the playback that are created when the CD is suddenly moved or bumped.

Additionally, buffering stores until retirement allows processors to speculatively execute store instructions that follow an instruction that may produce an exception (such as a load of a bad address, divide by zero, etc.) or a conditional branch instruction whose direction (taken or not taken) is not yet known.

NEW SCIENTIST 2 July, 1970 ...Current memory theory posits a seven second temporary "buffer store" preceding the main one: a blow on the head wipes out memory of this much prior time because it erases the contents of the buffer.
