// Paradigms of the Executor tasks management
//--------------------------------------------------
//Basics:
// * Tasks added by Executors are always stored in a global QMultiMap first -
// ordering primarily being the schedulingPriority(), and insertion instant
// (implicit) when they have the same scheduling priority.
// * The QMultiMap needs to be reverse-iterated to do that, since values with
// the same key are ordered from the most recent to the oldest one (see Qt's
// manual).
// * Worker threads are stored in a global set.
// * When a task is added or a task has been performed, the workers list is
// refreshed, possibly adding new Workers for some executable tasks.
// * When a worker ends a task, it automatically takes a new one before refreshing
// the workers list. If no task can be taken, by default the thread exits and
// invokes its own destruction.
// * The thread may instead be put to rest if explicitly told by the user with
// the appropriate method.
//Default execution conditions:
// * A task is executable if, by default, its task load added to the sum of that of
// all other active tasks does not exceed the available resources of the system
// (i.e.: 100 * # of cores of the machine).
// In other words, in every instant of execution, the sum of all active task's loads
// never exceeds the available machine resources.
// * When such default execution condition is not met when attempting to take the
// task, no other task is taken instead - we wait until enough resources have been
// freed before attempting to take the same task again.
// In other words, the default execution condition is *BLOCKING*.
//Custom execution conditions:
// * The user may decide to impose more tight conditions for tasks added by a certain
// Executor. Let's call such conditions 'custom' conditions.
// * Custom conditions are always tested *AFTER* the default ones (on the same task).
// This is necessary to enforce the global scheduling priorities mechanism.
// * When no task of a certain executor is active, custom conditions are always considered
// satisfied.
// * If custom conditions are not met, we enqueue the task in an Executor-private queue
// for later execution and remove it from the global tasks queue - making it possible
// to perform other tasks before our custom-failed one (such operation will be called
// "ACCUMULATION").
// In other words, custom conditions are *NOT BLOCKING* among different Executors.
// * Tasks in the last task's Executor-private queue are always polled before those in
// the global queue by Workers which ended a task, and this is done in a *BLOCKING* way
// inside the same Executor.
// * When an Executor-private tasks queue is not empty, all the other tasks added by the
// same executor are scheduled in the queue.
// In other words, the order of execution is always that of global insertion, *inside
// the same executor*.
// * Tasks polled from an Executor-private queue (which therefore satisfied custom conditions)
// may still fail with default execution conditions. If that happens, we put the task
// back into the global queue with highest possible priority (timedOut) and the worker dies.
// Tasks with this special priority are polled *before every other task*. So, again, default
// conditions are *BLOCKING*.
//Thread-safety:
// * Most of the following code is mutex-protected, altough it might seem not - indeed,
// only *one* mutex is locked and unlocked all of the time. This 'transition mutex' is
// the key to thread-safety: we're considered to lie in a 'transition state' if we are
// operating outside the run() of some task - which covers almost the totality of the code.
// * The transition mutex is *not* recursive. The reason is that threads con not wait on
// QWaitConditions if the mutex is recursive. That makes it necessary (and welcome) to put
// mutex lockers in strategic points of the code - in many low-level functions no mutex
// is locked *because some caller already did it before*. If you're modifying the code
// always trace back the callers of a function before inserting misleading mutex lockers.
//==============================================================================
//==================
// TODO list
//------------------
// * Improve dedicated threads support: make sure that tasks added to a dedicated
// executor are directly moved to the accumulation queue. The setDedicatedThreads()
// method must therefore react accordingly.
// * It could be possible to implement a dependency-based mechanism...
// * Should the hosting thread wait for worker ones upon ExecutorImp destruction??
// It could be a problem on some forever-waiting tasks...
// * Ricontrolla che con le ultime modifiche gli ExecutorId rimangano quando si passano
// i puntatori in takeTask e refreshAss..

//! Appropriate task load calibration is an important step to take when implementing

//! <ul>
//! <li>In every moment, the task manager ensures that the overall sum of the active
//! task's load does not exceed the number of machine's processing cores multiplied

//! task - meaning that when a task is about to be executed the task manager \a waits
//! until enough CPU resources are available to make it run.
//! In particular, observe that a task's load \b never has to exceed the total CPU
//! resources - doing so would surely result in a block of your application. The number
//! of available cores can be accessed via the \b TSystem::getProcessorCount() or
//! \b QThread::idealThreadCount().
//! <li>The task load is considered constant for the duration of the task. Changing its
//! value does not affect the task manager in any way once the task has been started.
//! <li>The default task load is 0, representing a very light task. If the task load
//! is 0 the condition at point 1 always succeeds - so the task is always executed when
//! encountered. Observe that a long succession of 0 task loads leads to the creation of
//! a proportional number of threads simultaneously running to dispatch it; if this is

application when it is shutting down - for example, it can be imposed
that the application must wait for the task to be finished, print logs

This signal is always preceded by a canceled() signal, informing all
active tasks that thay should begin quitting on their own in a 'soft'
way before brute termination may occur.
