Correction. The answer to this question is actually YES.
Read the martinfowler article. See the link below.

see Dmitry comments below, as well as  I'd consider

[Dmitry comments] http://martinfowler.com/articles/lmax.html to

description as it helped me to decipher the most of details.
The paper itself lacks illustrative material, focuses too much on

important (to
me) details of the framework.

Totally agree.
