Abstract:
A first pointer dereferencer receives a location of a portion of a first node of a data structure. The first node is to be stored in a first storage element. A first pointer is obtained from the first node of the data structure. A location of a portion of a second node of the data structure is determined based on the first pointer. The second node is to be stored in a second storage element. The location of the portion of the second node of the data structure is sent to a second pointer dereferencer that is to access the portion of the second node from the second storage element.
