Abstract
Approaches in accordance with various embodiments can reduce scheduling delays due to concurrent processing requests, as may involve VSyncs in multi-streaming systems. The software synchronization signals can be staggered relative to each other by offsetting an initial synchronization signal. These software synchronization signals can be readjusted over time such that each synchronization signal maintains the same relative offset, as may be with respect to other applications or containers.
