In some cases, applications need to jump to multiple branches from a parent task. This can be done by creating a <emphasis>multi-condition task</emphasis> which allows a task to select one or more successor tasks to execute. Similar to a condition task, a multi-condition task returns a vector of integer indices that indicate the successors to execute when the multi-condition task completes. The index is defined with respect to the order of successors preceded by a multi-condition task.
