{{ping|CyberXRef}} Any reference for that? They read quite differently to me, buts it's not my field of expertise. [[User:Klbrain|Klbrain]] ([[User talk:Klbrain|talk]]) 22:25, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' - I've recovered the reference in [[Shelving buffer]] and it does appear that these are different concepts. The shelving buffer is a list of instructions the processor examines for out-of-order execution possibilities. The re-order buffer contains intermediate results from instructions already executed which the processor may or may not use as final results depending on discovered dependencies. Shelving, an older technique, is currently not discussed in [[Out-of-order execution]] so I have added a See also link there. It is possible we would want to merge both [[Shelving buffer]] and [[Re-order buffer]] into [[Out-of-order execution]] but that is not the proposal on the table here. ~[[User:Kvng|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng|talk]]) 16:29, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
::Right; given the lack of support, and that this has rumbling on for more than 2 years, closing. [[User:Klbrain|Klbrain]] ([[User talk:Klbrain|talk]]) 13:06, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
