When multiple workflows are scheduled to run at the same time, the AutomationEdge Server generates execution requests for all of them simultaneously and routes them based on workflow type, priorities, and agent capacity:

- **Request Queue Creation:** The server generates an execution request for each scheduled workflow and places them in the request queue.

- **Parallel Execution (Non-Sequential Workflows):** Non-UI, non-sequential workflows run in parallel across available agent execution threads.

- **Sequential Execution (UI Workflows):** Sequential workflows cannot run in parallel on the same agent. An agent processes sequential requests one at a time
