There are three ways in controlling threads:

1. Waiting
   Implicitly wait for competitive resources
   Explicitly wait by calling myObject.wait();
       --> myObject.notify(); or myObject.notifyAll(); can wake up waiting threads
2. Yielding
   The thread gives up its order to other thread but doesn't release its resources!!
   myThread.yield();
   It's suitable for using it before processing a complicated task!!
3. Blocking
   
4. Sleeping
   Wait for at least a specified amount of time.
