/**
 * @class AliHLTDataBuffer
 * @brief  Handling of data buffers for the HLT.
 * 
 * The class provides handling of data buffers for HLT tasks. Each task gets
 * its own Data Buffer instance. The buffer is grouped into different data
 * segments according to the output of the component.<br>
 * The Data Buffer keeps control over the data requests of the 'child'
 * components. Each component can subscribe to a certain segment of the data
 * buffer. It's state is then changed from 'reserved' to 'active'. After the
 * data processing, the component has to release the segment and it's state is
 * set to 'processed'. If all components have requested and released their data,
 * the Raw Buffer is released and pushed back in the list of available buffers.
 *
 * @note This class is only used for the @ref alihlt_system.
