Iteration Scheduler

A research loop without a scheduler is a queue with delusions. The scheduler is where the loop decides what to stop exploring, and that decision is the whole game.

#Learning Objectives

  • Model a research workflow as a hypothesis queue feeding parallel experiment slots whose results fan back in.
  • Run multiple experiments concurrently with asyncio so the scheduler can keep all slots busy.
  • Score each hypothesis branch with UCB so the scheduler can prune low-yield branches without abandoning exploration.
  • Fan out finished results to a paper-write stage and a re-queue stage so a high-yield branch spawns follow-up hypotheses.
  • Surface a per-iteration trace with branch scores, slot occupancy, and pruning decisions.
