        When you register this class with it, a TimeSliceThread will repeatedly call
        this method.

        The implementation of this method should use its time-slice to do something that's
        quick - never block for longer than absolutely necessary.

        @returns    Your method should return the number of milliseconds which it would like to wait before being called
                    again. Returning 0 will make the thread call again as soon as possible (after possibly servicing
                    other busy clients). If you return a value below zero, your client will be removed from the list of clients,
                    and won't be called again. The value you specify isn't a guaranteee, and is only used as a hint by the
                    thread - the actual time before the next callback may be more or less than specified.
                    You can force the TimeSliceThread to wake up and poll again immediately by calling its notify() method.
