A thread is a lightweight sub-process that allows a program to operate more efficiently by doing multiple tasks simultaneously. When you execute a Java program, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) allocates execution paths, enabling concurrent processing through the thread life cycle.
Step-by-Step Thread Execution Flow
- 1. Instantiation: You create a thread object either by extending the
Threadclass or implementing theRunnableinterface. - 2. Invoking start(): Calling
start()notifies the thread scheduler that the thread is ready to execute itsrun()method. - 3. Execution & Scheduling: The JVM Thread Scheduler picks the thread from the ready pool and allocates CPU time slices to execute the business logic.
- 4. Pausing & Resuming: Threads can temporarily enter waiting, timed-waiting, or blocked states during I/O operations or lock acquisition.
- 5. Termination: Once the
run()method finishes execution, the thread completes its life cycle and is garbage collected.
Key Takeaway
Understanding how threads transition between different states ensures you can build responsive, high-performance Java applications without common pitfalls like race conditions and resource leaks.
