1. A system to optimize processing of sequence dependent operations in a voice activated data packet based computer network environment, comprising: a natural language processor component executed by a data processing system to receive data packets comprising an input audio signal detected by a sensor of a client computing device; the natural language processor component to parse the input audio signal to identify a request and a trigger keyword corresponding to the request; a prediction component to determine a thread based on the trigger keyword and the request, the thread comprising a first action, a second action subsequent to the first action, and a third action subsequent to the second action; the prediction component to provide, to a content selector component of the data processing system, an indication of the third action prior to occurrence of at least one of the first action and the second action; the content selector component to select, based on the third action and the trigger keyword identified by the natural language processor, a content item via a real-time content selection process; an audio signal generator component executed by the data processing system to generate an output signal comprising the content item; and an interface of the data processing system to transmit data packets comprising the output signal generated by the audio signal generator component and cause an audio driver component executed by the client computing device to drive a speaker of the client computing device to generate an acoustic wave corresponding to the output signal prior to occurrence of at least one of the first action and the second action.
8. The system of claim 1 , comprising: a direct action application programming interface of the data processing system to initiate the third action subsequent to completion of at least one of the first action and the second action.
