Abstract

A temporal-miss handler includes updating a data leaf in a tree-structured database of a communications processor with a plurality of threads. A search for the data leaf includes generating at least one search result for one of the plurality of threads. A sufficiency of a temporal separation, between updating the data leaf and searching for the data leaf, to retrieve the data leaf is determined. Each search result is cleared when the temporal separation is insufficient. A new search is performed when the temporal separation is insufficient.
