The Scheduler works like that:

It has a timer on which it subsribes filtered listeners. When the timer 
triggers, the appropriate listener catches the event and calls the predefined 
target class or mbean with some certain parameters. What you really want if i 
understood right, is to have your applications listen to the same timer events 
as the scheduler does. And you want to use the scheduler for that.

There are 2 solutions as i can see it.

The first one is based on being able to catch the timer events as the Scheduler 
itself does. This you can do by throwing away the Scheduler :) and use the 
Timer directly. You can set the Timer Mbean to start when jboss starts, and 
then your every application could implement the NotificationListener interface 
and subscribe to the timer through the JMX Server.

for example:
  private ObjectName mTimer;
  mTimer = new ObjectName("jboss:service=Timer");

  mListener = new YourListenerClass();
         getServer().addNotificationListener(
                 mTimer,
                 mListener,
                 new NotificationFilter(...),
                 null
         );

The second , easiest and best solution in my opinion is to make your 
scheduler's target class or mbean to place messages on a durable Topic, and 
then have your EJB applications subscribe on this Topic. So its MDB solution :)

In order to do that, you ll have to read about the scheduler's target which can 
be defined in your jboss-service.xml, and how to develop a custom target (plain 
class or mbean). Check the JMS documentation for the Topic and how to develop 
topic subscribers.
