<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MathJax.Callback.Queue</span></tt> object is one of the key mechanisms
used by MathJax to synchronize its actions with those that occur
asynchronously, like loading files and stylesheets. A <cite>Queue</cite> obejct
is used to coordinate a sequence of actions so that they are performed
one after another, even when one action has to wait for an
asynchronous process to complete. This guarantees that operations are
performed in the right order even when the code must wait for some
other action to occur. See <a class="reference internal" href="../synchronize.html#synchronization"><em>Synchronizing with MathJax</em></a> for more details, and <a class="reference internal" href="../queues.html#using-queues"><em>Using Queues</em></a> in particular for examples of how to specify and use
MathJax <cite>Queue</cite> objects.</p>

queued to be executed, but a wait for that callback is queued.
