Described embodiments provide a method of assigning tasks to queues of a processing core. Tasks are assigned to a queue by sending, by a source processing core, a new task having a task identifier. A destination processing core receives the new task and determines whether another task having the same identifier exists in any of the queues corresponding to the destination processing core. If another task with the same identifier as the new task exists, the destination processing core assigns the new task to the queue containing a task with the same identifier as the new task. If no task with the same identifier as the new task exists in the queues, the destination processing core assigns the new task to the queue having the fewest tasks. The source processing core writes the new task to the assigned queue. The destination processing core executes the tasks in its queues.
