The present invention provides a packet having a message and a processing priority associated with the message. The processing priority is dynamically changeable by a function operating on the message. The present invention also provides a method for associating a processing priority to a message by receiving the message, determining the processing priority for the message and associating the processing priority with the message such that the processing priority is dynamically changeable by a function operating on the message. In addition, the present invention provides a method for scheduling messages by receiving one or more messages and storing each message in a multidimensional processing queue based on a processing priority and an attribute associated with the message. Each queued message from the multidimensional processing queue is scheduled for processing based on an algorithm.
