What exactly are you looking for? A thread is started explicitly by
the process that creates it. So it is that thread who is responsible
for scheduling in whatever form.

For one particular type of scheduling (running a series of independent
tasks while not exceeding a fixed number of threads at a time),
I have a scheduler available in the most recent release (2.1.4) of
ScientificPython (module Scientific.Threading.TaskManager). You
can download it at
