    Methods in java.util.concurrent that return ScheduledFuture
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `<V> ScheduledFuture<V>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`schedule(Callable<V> callable, long delay, TimeUnit unit)`
    `<V> ScheduledFuture<V>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`schedule(Callable<V> callable, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` Creates and executes a ScheduledFuture that becomes enabled after the given delay.
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`schedule(Runnable command, long delay, TimeUnit unit)`
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`schedule(Runnable command, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` Creates and executes a one-shot action that becomes enabled after the given delay.
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`scheduleAtFixedRate(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long period, TimeUnit unit)`
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`scheduleAtFixedRate(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long period, TimeUnit unit)` Creates and executes a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given period; that is executions will commence after `initialDelay` then `initialDelay+period`, then `initialDelay + 2 * period`, and so on.
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`scheduleWithFixedDelay(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long delay, TimeUnit unit)`
    `ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`scheduleWithFixedDelay(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` Creates and executes a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given delay between the termination of one execution and the commencement of the next.
