Claim 0:
1. A processing request management system comprising one or more processors configured to:
receive a plurality of processing requests, each request being designated a desired processing completion time;
estimate a time required for processing each of the plurality of processing requests;
for each execution order, included in multiple potential execution orders for processing the plurality of processing requests, determine a sum of delays for processing respective processing requests in the plurality of processing requests in the execution order,
wherein a delay for processing a processing request is determined based on i) the desired processing completion time for the processing request, and ii) an estimated processing completion time for the processing request in the execution order, that is determined using the estimated time required for processing the processing request;

determine a particular execution order of processing the plurality of processing requests such that the sum of delays for processing the plurality of processing requests in the particular execution order is minimized;
transmit a queue of the plurality of processing requests in the particular execution order for processing; and
execute the plurality of processing requests in the particular execution order.
