Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed which facilitate management of a set of tasks between a plurality of task processing devices. Information corresponding to a number of tasks may be accessible to each of the task processing devices. In some instances, the information may be stored within a database. Each task processing device may claim a number of tasks, such that it is not claimable by other task processing devices, and may then process its claimed tasks. Each task processing device may be associated with a desired number of tasks, such that the desired number of tasks are claimed immediately or substantially immediately. Additional tasks may be claimed by a task processing device after a delay which may be based at least in part on the number of tasks currently claimed.
