/**
* An {@link Executor} that provides methods to manage termination and
* methods that can produce a {@link Future} for tracking progress of
* one or more asynchronous tasks.
*
* <p>An {@code ExecutorService} can be shut down, which will cause
* it to reject new tasks. Two different methods are provided for
* shutting down an {@code ExecutorService}. The {@link #shutdown}
* method will allow previously submitted tasks to execute before
* terminating, while the {@link #shutdownNow} method prevents waiting
* tasks from starting and attempts to stop currently executing tasks.
* Upon termination, an executor has no tasks actively executing, no
* tasks awaiting execution, and no new tasks can be submitted. An
* unused {@code ExecutorService} should be shut down to allow
* reclamation of its resources.
*
* <p>Method {@code submit} extends base method {@link
* Executor#execute(Runnable)} by creating and returning a {@link Future}
* that can be used to cancel execution and/or wait for completion.
* Methods {@code invokeAny} and {@code invokeAll} perform the most
* commonly useful forms of bulk execution, executing a collection of
* tasks and then waiting for at least one, or all, to
* complete. (Class {@link ExecutorCompletionService} can be used to
* write customized variants of these methods.)
*
* <p>The {@link Executors} class provides factory methods for the
* executor services provided in this package.
*
* <h3>Usage Examples</h3>
*
* Here is a sketch of a network service in which threads in a thread
* pool service incoming requests. It uses the preconfigured {@link
* Executors#newFixedThreadPool} factory method:
*
* <pre> {@code
* class NetworkService implements Runnable {
* private final ServerSocket serverSocket;
* private final ExecutorService pool;
*
* public NetworkService(int port, int poolSize)
* throws IOException {
* serverSocket = new ServerSocket(port);
* pool = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(poolSize);
* }
*
* public void run() { // run the service
* try {
* for (;;) {
* pool.execute(new Handler(serverSocket.accept()));
* }
* } catch (IOException ex) {
* pool.shutdown();
* }
* }
* }
*
* class Handler implements Runnable {
* private final Socket socket;
* Handler(Socket socket) { this.socket = socket; }
* public void run() {
* // read and service request on socket
* }
* }}</pre>
*
* The following method shuts down an {@code ExecutorService} in two phases,
* first by calling {@code shutdown} to reject incoming tasks, and then
* calling {@code shutdownNow}, if necessary, to cancel any lingering tasks:
*
* <pre> {@code
* void shutdownAndAwaitTermination(ExecutorService pool) {
* pool.shutdown(); // Disable new tasks from being submitted
* try {
* // Wait a while for existing tasks to terminate
* if (!pool.awaitTermination(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS)) {
* pool.shutdownNow(); // Cancel currently executing tasks
* // Wait a while for tasks to respond to being cancelled
* if (!pool.awaitTermination(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS))
* System.err.println("Pool did not terminate");
* }
* } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
* // (Re-)Cancel if current thread also interrupted
* pool.shutdownNow();
* // Preserve interrupt status
* Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
* }
* }}</pre>
*
* <p>Memory consistency effects: Actions in a thread prior to the
* submission of a {@code Runnable} or {@code Callable} task to an
* {@code ExecutorService}
* <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
* any actions taken by that task, which in turn <i>happen-before</i> the
* result is retrieved via {@code Future.get()}.
*
