The {@link com.top_logic.util.sched.Scheduler} is a central class that allows execution of {@link com.top_logic.basic.sched.Task}s.

A Task is a slightly enhanced Thread to allow cooperation with the Scheduler

Tasks can be executed at regular intervals. The current implementation allows some variations that can be extended by subclassing and configuration.

Look at the Testcases and the subclasses found in TopLogic to see the concepts in action.
