Command queue

Command queue

A command queue is a queue for delaying the execution of commands, usually either in order of priority or on a first-in first-out basis.[1] They are often useful in synchronous applications, where a command executor may receive a new command while it is still performing a previous one, and so requires a means of tracking what the commands are, and in what order they must be performed.
