Attribute-Based Workload Queue Segmentation

The patent divides a single large work queue into multiple smaller queues, each organized by specific attribute values (e.g., queue type, priority, resource requirements). This segmentation reduces the search space for the best candidate algorithm, as it only needs to search within relevant queues rather than through all queued data, thereby reducing searching time while maintaining fairness through systematic selection across queues.

The patent introduces an additional organizational dimension by creating queues based on attribute values rather than a single flat queue structure. Units of work are distributed across multiple queues based on their attributes, adding a dimensional organization that enables faster retrieval by the best candidate algorithm while preserving fairness through multi-queue selection.

The patent segments the selection process by organizing queues according to different attribute types (e.g., queue type, priority, resources). Each queue represents a specific attribute category, allowing the system to comprehensively consider multiple attributes while maintaining predictability through structured, attribute-based selection rather than unpredictable algorithmic combinations.

The patent changes the selection approach by using attribute-based queue organization instead of combining multiple selection algorithms. This parameter change transforms the selection mechanism from algorithmic complexity to structured organizational complexity, improving comprehensiveness through attribute coverage while enhancing predictability through consistent queue-based selection rules.

The patent segments the workload management system into multiple attribute-based queues, improving workload balancing by distributing units of work across queues with similar characteristics. The increased complexity is managed through systematic organization where each queue represents a specific attribute category, making the complexity structured and manageable rather than chaotic.

The patent creates a universal queue management framework where queues can be organized by multiple attribute types (queue type, priority, resources, etc.). This multi-functional queue system handles diverse workload characteristics through a single standardized approach, improving workload balancing while keeping management complexity manageable through consistent rules applied across all attribute categories.
