Abstract
An apparatus including a processor to: output a first request message onto a group sub-queue shared by multiple task containers to request execution of a first task routine; within a task container, respond to the first request message, by outputting a first task in-progress message onto an individual sub-queue not shared with other task containers to accede to executing the first task routine, followed by a task completion message; and respond to the task completion message by allowing the task completion message to remain on the individual sub-queue to keep the task container from executing another task routine from another request message on the group sub-queue, outputting a second request message onto the individual sub-queue to cause execution of a second task routine within the same task container to perform a second task, and responding to the second task in-progress message by de-queuing the task completion message.
