This happens quite often. On system start-up you simply start a new 
scheduler in its own thread, without creating any processors beforehand. 
Processors are later created on demand, depending on external input. 
I've never worked in the telephony field but I could imagine that you 
might want to create a new FSM when a call is placed and destroy it 
later when the call ends.
