Thanks for the response... TimedDelay just sends out a token after a specified delay (send (token, delay)). what I am looking at is to stop(delay) the execution by a clock and proceed. I could have used TimedDelay if I had to delay in a particular simulation. But I need to delay inside an actor and not while sending out the Token. Just somehow hold the execution for one clock. Its a flipflop kind of a device which needs to hold the data for 1 clock and then give it out to the next stage of execution.
