It operates periodically by:

  1. Checking if there are items waiting to be labelled in the task buffer.
  2. Marking those items as assigned to MicroMappers
  3. Send those items from AIDR to MicroMappers
  4. Checking periodically in MicroMappers if there are new labelled items
  5. Send those items from MicroMappers to AIDR
