Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for controlling the execution of concurrent threads executing tasks in a database management system. A first task is executed at a first thread from a pool of threads for execution of tasks at the database management system. It can be identified that the execution of the first task is paused and that the first task is in a sleep mode. In response to identifying that the first task is in an awake mode after the sleep mode, it can be determined whether a current number of threads in the pool that are currently processing tasks in parallel is below an allowed number of threads. It can be determined that the allowed number of threads has been reached and a waiting status can be assigned to the first task at the first thread.
