Waiting and Notification

• notify - resulting actions

  • remove arbitrary thread T from the wait queue
  • T must re-obtain the synchronization lock for the target object
  • resume T at the point of its wait

• notifyAll works in the same way, but the steps occur for all threads in the wait queue

• wait with time parameter - notify is invoked automatically when the specified time passes
