although i'm not a "non-English software engineer", my english-russian
computer dictionary gives the russian equivalent of "queue" as the standard
word for "queue, line (for waiting in)" [ochered'], and "queu(e)ing" as
"organization of queues" [organizacija ocheredej]. the russian term for
stack is the english word (spelled in russian: stek), but also the word for
store (as in department store) [magazin].
