From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
buffer          1. An area of memory used for storing messages.   Typically, a       buffer will have other attributes such as an input pointer       (where new data will be written into the buffer), and output       pointer (where the next item will be read from) and/or a count       of the space used or free.   Buffers are used to decouple       processes so that the reader and writer may operate at       different speeds or on different sized blocks of data.          There are many different algorithms for using buffers, e.g.       first-in first-out (FIFO or shelf), last-in first-out (LIFO or       stack), double buffering (allowing one buffer to be read while       the other is being written), cyclic buffer (reading or writing       past the end wraps around to the beginning).          2. An electronic device to provide compatibility between two       signals, e.g. changing voltage levels or current capability.
