Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus and method are provided for termination of received network events (i.e., a packet received from the network) in a multiprocessing environment. Each processing node may handle one or more receive object queues, which may be linked in a linked list fashion, as well as a linked list of application stream queues to enable efficient termination of the received network events. Queues may be added, made inactive, or removed, depending on the status of a specific receive event the queue handles. By maintaining queues in memory the apparatus is easily scalable, linearly with the size of the memory made available.
