Claim 10:
11. The system of claim 1, wherein the gate control logic implements a state machine for each queue and determines if a queue is in one of: (i) a first state defined by the queue not having any messages or an end of partition signal; (ii) a second state defined by the queue having at least one message and not having an end of partition signal; (iii) a third state defined by the queue having at least one message and an end of partition signal; or (iv) a fourth state defined by the queue not having any messages and having an end of partition signal; and wherein the gate control logic blocks the writer thread from accessing the queues if any of the queues are in the first state.
