OK, I get the picture.
Since my single-threaded gpgpu-scheduler needs modifications as it is.
Maybe you should implement the multi-threaded-scheduler and leave the
scheduler choosing mechanism in place, and only leave stubs for the
single-threaded case.
I then could have a go at (trying to) implementing it for the
single-threaded (gpgpu ) case.
