I use Later objects for convenient queuing of functions whose execution occurs later in a priority order with capacity constraints.
Why not futures? I already had this, I prefer its naming scheme and interface, and futures did not seem to support prioritising execution.
Use is simple enough: create a Later instance and typically queue functions with the .defer() method:
L = Later(4) # a Later with a parallelism of 4 ... LF = L.defer(func, *args, **kwargs) ... x = LF() # collect result
The .defer method and its sublings return a LateFunction, which is a subclass of cs.asynchron.Asynchron. As such it is a callable, so to collect the result you just call the LateFunction.
