I don't know if this helps as an idea, but on a recent work-related project, I wrote a wrapper that checked a database queue for waiting tasks (in my case, account provisioning items), changed the status to pending, processed the item (either itself or through the use of a helper application), then changed it again to a completed or failed status. I had the luxury of having each wrapper only look for one type of item, though, where you would have to do a query probably based on some priority rating or something.

Lots of good suggestions already, but good luck, and hope the idea helps.
