class
Scheduler
extends Object
implements Runnable
Implementation of a priority scheduler. The scheduler maintains a queue to the end of which
all tasks are added. It continually looks at the first queue element, assigns a thread to
it, runs the thread and waits for completion. When a new
priority task is added,
it will be added to the head of the queue and the scheduler will be interrupted. In this
case, the currently handled task is suspended, and the one at the head of the queue
handled. This is recursive: a priority task can always be interrupted by another priority
task. Resursion ends when no more priority tasks are added, or when the thread pool is
exhausted.

Stop the scheduler thread. The thread may be waiting for its next task (queue.peek()) or it may be waiting on
the currently executing thread. In the first case, closing the queue will throw a QueueClosed exception which
terminates the scheduler thread. In the second case, after closing the queue, we interrupt the scheduler thread,
which then checks whether the queue is closed. If this is the case, the scheduler thread terminates.
