Some embodiments of the present invention provide systems and techniques for collecting task status information. During operation, the system can receive a status update for a task from a task manager through a GUI. Next, the system can determine whether the first status update for the task indicates that the task is delayed. If the status update indicates that the task is delayed, the system can request the task manager to indicate the help needed to resolve the task delay. Next, the system can receive a help needed descriptor from the task manager. Subsequently, the system can receive another status update for the task from the task manager, wherein the status update indicates that the help specified in the help needed descriptor is no longer required. Next, the system can determine an amount of delay associated with the help needed descriptor.

Post facto identification and prioritization of causes of buffer consumption

Some embodiments of the present invention provide systems and techniques for determining a start delay and an execution delay for a task. During operation, the system can receive a status update for the task which indicates that the task has started execution. Next, the system can receive a second status update for the task which indicates that the task has completed execution. The system can then determine the start delay for the task by: determining an actual start time using the first status update; and determining a difference between the actual start time and the task's suggested start time. Next, the system can determine the execution delay for the task by: determining an actual execution duration using the first status update and the second status update; and determining a difference between the actual execution duration and the task's planned execution duration.
