  • METHOD FOR EFFICIENT THREAD USAGE FOR HIERARCHICALLY STRUCTURED TASKS

    Abstract: A system and method for dividing complex tasks into sub-tasks for the purpose of improving performance in completing the task. Sub-tasks are arranged hierarchically and if a sub-task is unable to obtain a thread for execution it is executed in the thread of the parent task. Should a thread become free it is returned to a thread pool for use by any task. Should a parent task be waiting on the completion of one or more sub-tasks, the thread it uses is returned to the thread pool for use by any other task as needed.
