// alarm.h 
//	Data structures for a software alarm clock.
//
//	We make use of a hardware timer device, that generates
//	an interrupt every X time ticks (on real systems, X is
//	usually between 0.25 - 10 milliseconds).
//
//	From this, we provide the ability for a thread to be
//	woken up after a delay; we also provide time-slicing.
//
//	NOTE: this abstraction is not completely implemented.
