/**
* A synchronization aid that allows a set of threads to all wait for
* each other to reach a common barrier point. CyclicBarriers are
* useful in programs involving a fixed sized party of threads that
* must occasionally wait for each other. The barrier is called
* <em>cyclic</em> because it can be re-used after the waiting threads
* are released.
*
* <p>A <tt>CyclicBarrier</tt> supports an optional {@link Runnable} command
* that is run once per barrier point, after the last thread in the party
* arrives, but before any threads are released.
* This <em>barrier action</em> is useful
* for updating shared-state before any of the parties continue.
*
* <p><b>Sample usage:</b> Here is an example of
* using a barrier in a parallel decomposition design:
* <pre>
* class Solver {
* final int N;
* final float[][] data;
* final CyclicBarrier barrier;
*
* class Worker implements Runnable {
* int myRow;
* Worker(int row) { myRow = row; }
* public void run() {
* while (!done()) {
* processRow(myRow);
*
* try {
* barrier.await();
* } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
* return;
* } catch (BrokenBarrierException ex) {
* return;
* }
* }
* }
* }
*
* public Solver(float[][] matrix) {
* data = matrix;
* N = matrix.length;
* barrier = new CyclicBarrier(N,
* new Runnable() {
* public void run() {
* mergeRows(...);
* }
* });
* for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i)
* new Thread(new Worker(i)).start();
*
* waitUntilDone();
* }
* }
* </pre>
* Here, each worker thread processes a row of the matrix then waits at the
* barrier until all rows have been processed. When all rows are processed
* the supplied {@link Runnable} barrier action is executed and merges the
* rows. If the merger
* determines that a solution has been found then <tt>done()</tt> will return
* <tt>true</tt> and each worker will terminate.
*
* <p>If the barrier action does not rely on the parties being suspended when
* it is executed, then any of the threads in the party could execute that
* action when it is released. To facilitate this, each invocation of
* {@link #await} returns the arrival index of that thread at the barrier.
* You can then choose which thread should execute the barrier action, for
* example:
* <pre> if (barrier.await() == 0) {
* // log the completion of this iteration
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The <tt>CyclicBarrier</tt> uses an all-or-none breakage model
* for failed synchronization attempts: If a thread leaves a barrier
* point prematurely because of interruption, failure, or timeout, all
* other threads waiting at that barrier point will also leave
* abnormally via {@link BrokenBarrierException} (or
* {@link InterruptedException} if they too were interrupted at about
* the same time).
*
* <p>Memory consistency effects: Actions in a thread prior to calling
* {@code await()}
* <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
* actions that are part of the barrier action, which in turn
* <i>happen-before</i> actions following a successful return from the
* corresponding {@code await()} in other threads.
