Maybe you'll be interested in the talk I gave at FOSDEM 2014; this was
part two of "Multitasking made easy", subtitled "Ada Task Pools".
Source code is available here:

http://people.debian.org/~lbrenta/ada-fosdem2014.tar.gz

and the one-hour video is here:

http://video.fosdem.org/2014/K4601/Saturday/

In the example discussed, the main task starts N identical tasks and
then calls an entry Start on each task.  The number of tasks is computed
at run time.
