Periodic task execution in an automated context

Abstract:

A computing system may run a recurring task, which may use resources, such as logic resources and time, to operate on and/or with a set of data. Accordingly, the frequency at which the recurring task is executed may limit the performance and/or efficiency of the computing system. As such, a scheduler routine may, based on configuration information associated with the recurring task and/or the set of data, schedule the recurring task with a periodicity that may improve the performance and/or efficiency of the computing system.
