Abstract
A system and related method are provided for interleaving undelayed and intentionally delayed executable instructions that are executable by a processor of a system having a memory. The method comprises utilizing the processor to execute programmed instructions for: receiving, by a message handling process (MHPa), a triggering signal triggering the MHPa to an active state. In response to the MHPa being triggered to the active state, the MHPa determines if a delayed message queue (DMQa) is empty. When the DMQa is empty, the system determines if an immediate message queue is empty. When not, a current message is set to be a top message in the IMQa. When the delay criteria of the current message do not require an intentional delay, the system executes the executable instructions of the current message, and when they do, the message is placed in the DMQa.
