When trying to custom the FL algorithm based on FedAlg, some methods and property are not correctly inherited from the base class FedAlg. This issue happened to self.__task_queue, self.__wb_run.

This seems to be related to Name mangling in Python. Double underscore started methods and attributes are not directly accessible outside the class. As the name is prefixed with the class name when referred to. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15738086/issue-with-python-single-and-double-underscore-variables for more detail.
