Would queued tasks in general, and deferred tasks in particular, suit you? You can set an ETA for these tasks, and GAE/J guarantees not to fire these tasks before any ETA set.
You could use a scheduled task for a "heartbeat" of interval 1 minute, and use this to enqueue tasks for ETAs such that you could have queued task "heartbeats" as desired between your 1 minute scheduled task "heartbeats".
