* Execeutors are an implementation of the Executor pattern. This is
* a more versatile construct than a thread pool. A paper describing can
* be found in the proceedings of the 2002 VikingPLOP conference.
*
* <b>Executing</b>
*
* - <em>execute</em>()ing task with an Executor will submit the task, scheduling
* it for execution at some future time depending on the Executor being used.
*
* <b>Disabling</b>
*
* - <em>cancel</em>()ing an Executor will cause it to stop accepting
* new tasks.
*
* <b>Interrupting</b>
*
* - <em>interrupt</em>()ing an Executor will cause the any thread running
* a task which was submitted prior to the invocation of this function to
* be interrupted during the execution of that task.
*
* <b>Waiting</b>
*
* - <em>wait</em>()ing on a PoolExecutor will block the calling thread
* until all tasks that were submitted prior to the invocation of this function
* have completed.
*
* @see Cancelable
* @see Waitable
