so basically: 1) timers are created/armed 2) timer callback is triggered for every time expiry: if Timer A expires in 5 seconds, a callback is invoked within a thread. It then writes a certain message to send to a priority queue. 3) priority queue is read in main thread. 4) the read value is written to a message queue which wakes up X process. In basic words, X process is being notified what to do when, and that's what the timer scheduler is doing
