received after results have been transmitted over a communications channel 1304 or after a signal to cancel a computational task has been received 1312 the computer completes activity for this computational task in some implementations the step of receiving a computational task over a communications channel 1302 can be one or more times before the computer has finished calculating prior computational tasks under such circumstances the computer may perform the method shown in fig8 for multiple computational tasks using methods that may include but are not limited to placing incoming computational tasks into a queue then performing the steps serially to completion of transmission 1304 or cancellation 1312 performing steps for each computational task in parallel non limiting examples of methods for placing computational tasks into a queue may include using a fifo first in first out using a queue ordered by shortest estimated time to completion using a queue ordered by a weighting of shortest estimated time to completion and time since arrival in the queue fig1 shows one embodiment of a method for creating computational tasks from an fpt based on an end user performance requirement the first step is to receive resource capability information 1702 the resource capability information may include but.
