A linear queue models the FIFO(first in first out) data structure, much like a line in real life. The first person in line will be the first person served, in queues the first element to be added is the first that can be removed. The only adding point is to the end of the list and the only removal point is the beginning of the list.
Queue<String> q = new LinkedList<String>(); // The LinkedList class implements Queue
q.add("Bob"); // Now Bob is at the front of the queue
q.add("Stacy"); // Stacy after Bob
q.add("Will"); // and Will after her
String removed = q.remove(); // Bob is removed
q.add("Michael"); Michael is added after Will
System.out.println(q); // Prints ["Stacy", "Will", "Michael"]

The queue is a linear data structure where operations of insertion and deletion are performed at separate ends also known as front and rear. Queue is a FIFO structure that is first in first out. Following are the types of queue: Linear queue Circular queue Priority queue Double ended queue ( or deque )
What is the difference between linear and circular queue? In: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/FAQ/2545-37 [Edit categories]The Queue by Default is Linear, it would be termed as Circular if the Last Element of the Queue pointsto the first element of the List
Yes. A queue is a container to provide First-in-First-out operations on the items added and deleted from the container. These operations makes a queue being linear. And because the items inside this container do not interact with the container, they are just "data" to the container, hence a queue indeed is a LINEAR data structure. One would argue that a queue may have other ways to store queued elements in database, files, any external storage that are not linear (1 dimension). However, the bottom line is, to be a queue, it must guarantee First-in, First out, and a "ticket" is attached to each items, and those tickets are in sequential order, and hence it is a linear list or collection.

Queue is a data structure which is based on FIFO that is first in first out. Following are the types of queue: Linear queue Circular queue Priority queue Double ended queue ( or deque )
In circular queue the memory of the deleted process can be used by some other new process..

A circular queue uses the same conventions as that of linear queue. Using Front will always point one position counterclockwise from the first element in the queue.

Queue is difined as a special type of data structure .where elements are inserted one end &elements are deleted same end .The end from where they elements are inserted is called as "Rear end".The end from where elements are deleted is called "Front end". A linear queue is akin to the queue at the post office: it can be envisioned to be linear in space, and limited in space. When a linear queue of finite capacity is full, new arrivals are turned away (elements cannot be added, post office customers walk away). A circular queue behaves just like a normal queue, but is typically implemented in a a structure akin to a circle. The typical behavior is that the circular queue, when full, does not turn new entries away, but makes space by removing the oldest element in the queue. Of course, a queue might also be implemented to be of infinite, or virtually infinite, capacity.
The queue is a linear data structure where operations of insertion and deletion are performed at separate ends also known as front and rear. Queue is a FIFO structure that is first in first out. A circular queue is similar to the normal queue with the difference that queue is circular queue ; that is pointer rear can point to beginning of the queue when it reaches at the end of the queue. Advantage of this type of queue is that empty location let due to deletion of elements using front pointer can again be filled using rear pointer.
Circular queue is a linear data structure that follows the First In First Out principle. A re-buffering problem often occurs for each dequeue operation in a standard queue data structure. This is solved by using a circular queue which joins the front and rear ends of a queue.
