The real question is "What is the problem you're trying to solve?" What you're 
asking about is a possible solution to some problem. If we know what that 
problem is, we can likely provide a suitable solution. With only the possible 
solution, all we can tell you is it won't work. Ada tasks are self scheduling; 
you can't schedule them externally.
