See this post for creating threads using the boost library in C++:

Simple example of threading in C++

(it is a c++ thread even though the title says c)

basically, create your own "master" object that takes a "runnable" object and starts it running in a new thread.

Then you can create new classes that implement "runnable" and throw them over to your master runner any old time you want.
