/**
 * 
 * The interface to be implemented by classes that want to provide a mechanism by which the {@link org.quartz.core.QuartzScheduler} can reliably determine the current time.
 * 
 * 
 * In general, the default implementation of this interface ({@link org.quartz.simpl.SimpleTimeBroker}- which simply uses System.getCurrentTimeMillis() )is sufficient. However situations may exist where this default scheme
 * is lacking in its robustsness - especially when Quartz is used in a clustered configuration. For example, if one or more of the machines in the cluster has a system time that varies by more than a few seconds from the clocks on the other systems
 * in the cluster, scheduling confusion will result.
