```
public static void sleepProcess(TypedAtomicActor actor)
                         throws IllegalActionException
```
    Sleep the current thread for 100 ms. If the Thread.sleep() call gets interrupted, and ProcessDirector.stop() was called, then we throw a TerminateProcessException, which stops all the other Processes. If Thread.sleep() gets interrupted and ProcessDirector.stop() was not called, then we throw an IllegalActionException.
    This method is used to slow down execution for the purposes of illustration.
    
    Parameters:
    
    actor - The actor used for checking whether stop() was called.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalActionException - If the Thread.sleep() call gets interrupted and stop() was not called on the director.
