A deque of a local process in a memory work-stealing implementation may use one or more data structures to perform work. If the local process attempts to add a new value to its deque's data structure when the data structure is full (i.e., an overflow condition occurs), the contents of the data structure are copied to a larger allocated data structure (e.g., an array of greater size than an original array). The entries in the original, smaller-sized data structure are copied to exact positions in the now-active, larger-sized data structure. By this technique, the local process is thus provided with space to add the new value.
