  Subinterfaces of ExecutorService in java.util.concurrent
  Modifier and Type
  Interface
  Description
  `interface`
  `ScheduledExecutorService`
  An `ExecutorService` that can schedule commands to run after a given delay, or to execute periodically.
  Classes in java.util.concurrent that implement ExecutorService
  Modifier and Type
  Class
  Description
  `class`
  `AbstractExecutorService`
  Provides default implementations of `ExecutorService` methods other than `Executor.execute(Runnable)`.
  `class`
  `ForkJoinPool`
  An `ExecutorService` for running `ForkJoinTask`s.
  `class`
  `ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor`
  A `ThreadPoolExecutor` that can additionally schedule commands to run after a given delay, or to execute periodically.
  `class`
  `ThreadPoolExecutor`
  An `ExecutorService` that executes each submitted task using one of possibly several pooled threads, normally configured using `Executors` factory methods.
  Methods in java.util.concurrent that return ExecutorService
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newCachedThreadPool()`
  Creates a thread pool that creates new threads as needed, but will reuse previously constructed threads when they are available.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newCachedThreadPool(ThreadFactory threadFactory)`
  Creates a thread pool that creates new threads as needed, but will reuse previously constructed threads when they are available, and uses the provided ThreadFactory to create new threads when needed.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newFixedThreadPool(int nThreads)`
  Creates a thread pool that reuses a fixed number of threads operating off a shared unbounded queue.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newFixedThreadPool(int nThreads, ThreadFactory threadFactory)`
  Creates a thread pool that reuses a fixed number of threads operating off a shared unbounded queue, using the provided ThreadFactory to create new threads when needed.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newSingleThreadExecutor()`
  Creates an Executor that uses a single worker thread operating off an unbounded queue.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newSingleThreadExecutor(ThreadFactory threadFactory)`
  Creates an Executor that uses a single worker thread operating off an unbounded queue, and uses the provided ThreadFactory to create a new thread when needed.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newThreadPerTaskExecutor(ThreadFactory threadFactory)`
  Creates an Executor that starts a new Thread for each task.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newVirtualThreadPerTaskExecutor()`
  Creates an Executor that starts a new virtual Thread for each task.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newWorkStealingPool()`
  Creates a work-stealing thread pool using the number of available processors as its target parallelism level.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`newWorkStealingPool(int parallelism)`
  Creates a thread pool that maintains enough threads to support the given parallelism level, and may use multiple queues to reduce contention.
  `static ExecutorService`
  Executors.`unconfigurableExecutorService(ExecutorService executor)`
  Returns an object that delegates all defined `ExecutorService` methods to the given executor, but not any other methods that might otherwise be accessible using casts.
