- * \details	The FixedSlotSequence object maintains the dynamic execution of device handler objects.
- * 			The main idea is to create a list of device handlers, to announce all handlers to the
- * 			polling sequence and to maintain a list of polling slot objects. This slot list represents the
- * 			Polling Sequence Table in software. Each polling slot contains information to indicate when and
- * 			which device handler shall be executed within a given polling period.
- * 			The sequence is then executed by iterating through this slot list.
- * 			Handlers are invoking by calling a certain function stored in the handler list.
