 * fixed time steps. Objects implementing this interface should be
 * wrapped within an instance of {@link StepNormalizer} that itself
 * is used as the general {@link StepHandler} by the integrator. The
 * {@link StepNormalizer} object is called according to the integrator
 * internal algorithms and it calls objects implementing this
 * interface as necessary at fixed time steps.</p>
