Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for scheduling based on tags of different types. Some embodiments of the method include broadcasting a first tag to entries in a queue of a scheduler. The first tag is broadcast in response to a first instruction associated with a first entry in the queue being picked for execution. The first tag includes information identifying the first entry and information indicating a type of the first tag. Some embodiments of the method also include marking at least one second entry in the queue is ready to be picked for execution in response to at least one second tag associated with at least one second entry in the queue matching the first tag.
