ABSTRACT:
A system and method for generating a key list structure forming a queue of users' work flow requests in a queuing system such that many requests from a single user will not prevent processing of requests from other users in the queuing system. The key list structure comprises keys associated with users' work flow requests, each key indicating a priority level associated with a request, a user identification (User ID) associated with a requestor, and, an assigned user priority value (UPV). The method assigns UPVs to user requests in a manner such that user request entries become interleaved in the key list structure to prevent a single user from dominating the request processing.
