LinkedList and Deque both are doubly-linked,

we can have insertion and deletion at both ends

then what is difference ?

Deque is an interface. LinkedList is a class that implements that interface. So, a LinkedList is a Deque.

Well for starters, Deque is an interface and LinkedList is a class. If you see the documentation carefully across 1.7, 1.6, 1.5, LinkedList implements Queue since java 1.5. It provides additional methods for poll and peek functionalities. Before that I don't think it had queue functionality. Others might give more insight into the matter.

You are correct; I couldn’t find the Queue interface in the J2SE1.4.2 documentation.
