required to experiment with different scheduling and communication
techniques, we chose to implement our own task scheduler
techniques, (
\swift

Computer Science and Astrophysics to study not only cosmological
phenomena, but also novel simulation algorithms and parallel computing techniques)
we chose to implement our own task scheduler

In
\qs
and
\swift
, task dependencies are specified explicitly,
as opposed to being implicitly derived from data dependencies,
allowing us to more easily build complex task hierarchies.
This also allowed us to extend the scheduler with the concept of
task conflicts and integrate the asynchronous communication
scheme described further on.
