        public static Time schedule​(ActorExecutionAspect aspect,
                            NamedObj actor,
                            Time environmentTime,
                            Time deadline)
                     throws IllegalActionException
        Schedule an actor for execution on an aspect and return the next time this aspect has to perform an action. Derived classes must implement this method to actually schedule actors, this base class implementation just creates events for aspect activity that is displayed in the plotter. This base class implementation just creates events for aspect activity that is displayed in the plotter.
        Parameters:
        aspect - The aspect.
        actor - The actor to be scheduled.
        environmentTime - The current platform time.
        deadline - The deadline timestamp of the event to be scheduled. This can be the same as the environmentTime.
        Returns:
        Relative time when this aspect has to be executed again to perform rescheduling actions.
        Throws:
        IllegalActionException - Thrown if actor parameters such as execution time or priority cannot be read.
