Detailed Description

This protocol provides the services to initialize a periodic timer interrupt, and to register a handler that is called each time the timer interrupt fires. It may also provide a service to adjust the rate of the periodic timer interrupt. When a timer interrupt occurs, the handler is passed the amount of time that has passed since the previous timer interrupt.
