Abstract

A computer readable storage medium including executable instructions for heuristics-based task scheduling. Instructions include receiving a first event notification associated with a first event, where the first event is determined from the first event notification. Instructions further include determining whether a predicate for an action is satisfied by the first event, where the action predicate, the action, and an action parameter are associated with a task object in a task pool. Instructions further include obtaining the action parameter when the action predicate is satisfied by the first event, where a priority is assigned using a heuristics policy to the task object based on the action parameter. Instructions further include inserting the task object into a task queue using the assigned priority. The action associated with the task object is performed by an execution thread. The performance of the action is a second event associated with a second event notification.
