"Prioritization of process instances"

Hi,     
     We have a project where we need a BPM engine but we have 2 characteristics 
that need be supported. To illustrate consider a process with the following 
definition: Process1: Activity1 -> Activity2 -> Activity3 -> Activity4.

1 - We need to prioritize some instances of the process. For example, imagine 
that we have 1000 instances but five of these instances have a higher priority, 
therefore, the activities of these instances should be executed first.

2 - Some types of activities should not have more than a maximum number of 
executions in parallel. For example, the Activity2 should have a maximum of 3 
instances running at the same time ant Activity3 a maximum of 25. This 
restriction is necessary because our application is OLTP and some types of 
activities cause a huge load on the database.


     jBPM supports these features? Is there any workaround to meet these 
requirements? You have any suggestions on how to implement this in jBPM?

     We have a team with a lot of experience developing high performance Java 
applications, but we don't have enough experience with jBPM, our goal is to 
share with the community a solution that meets these requirements.
