 * Changes
 * -------
 * 11-Oct-2001 : Version 1 (DG);
 * 14-Nov-2001 : Added listener mechanism (DG);
 * 15-Nov-2001 : Updated argument checking and exceptions in add() method (DG);
 * 29-Nov-2001 : Added properties to describe the domain and range (DG);
 * 07-Dec-2001 : Renamed TimeSeries --> BasicTimeSeries (DG);
 * 01-Mar-2002 : Updated import statements (DG);
 * 28-Mar-2002 : Added a method add(TimePeriod, double) (DG);
 * 27-Aug-2002 : Changed return type of delete method to void (DG);
