Typedef Documentation

typedef boost::function<bool (unsigned long) Scheduler::BoostCallback)

Definition at line 20 of file BoostScheduler.h.

typedef TaskQueue< PriorityOrdering< FastDelegateCallback >, NoSmoothing > Scheduler::FrameLockedQueue

Frame-locked task queue. Useful for tasks that must execute in sync with each other. Eg. graphics rendering, input handling, possibly physics, etc. Definition at line 28 of file BoostScheduler.h.

typedef TaskQueue< UrgencyOrdering< FastDelegateCallback >, FixedLimitSmoothing > Scheduler::FixedLimitQueue

Fixed-length frame queue, for periodic tasks. Useful for a set of tasks where each processing step should only take a given amount of time, and where low-priority tasks can tolerate being called at a much lower than expected frequency under periods of heavy load. (Can help create a fixed frame-rate). Definition at line 37 of file BoostScheduler.h.

typedef TaskQueue< UrgencyOrdering< FastDelegateCallback >, MovingAverageSmoothing > Scheduler::MovingAverageQueue

Adaptively adjusted frame-length queue, for periodic tasks. Useful for managing tasks under fluctuating load. As load increases, higher variance tasks are used as a buffer to ensure low variance tasks are executed regularly. If load stays high, the over-capacity processing burden is spread amongst all tasks and frame rate drops. Definition at line 45 of file BoostScheduler.h.

typedef fastdelegate::FastDelegate1<unsigned long, bool> Scheduler::FastDelegateCallback

Definition at line 126 of file Scheduler.h.

typedef unsigned int Scheduler::TaskId

Definition at line 17 of file TaskOrderingPolicies.h.
