Managing buffer overflow conditions

摘要

Systems and techniques include, in some implementations, a computer implemented method storing (308) a portion of data elements present in a first buffer (110) in a second buffer (112) in response to detecting an overflow condition of the first buffer (306), wherein the data elements in the first buffer are sorted according to a predetermined order, and inserting a proxy data element in the first buffer to represent the portion of data elements stored to the second buffer.
