Java's sophisticated [[memory management]], native support for [[Thread (computer science)|threading]] and concurrency, [[type safety]], and relative simplicity have created a demand for its use in many domains. Its capabilities have been enhanced to support real time computational needs:

* Java supports a strict [[''Preemption'' Preemption_(computing)|priority based]] [[Thread (computer science)|threading]] model.

* Because Java threads support priorities, Java [[Lock (software engineering)|locking]] mechanisms support [[priority inversion]] avoidance techniques, such as [[priority inheritance]] or the [[priority ceiling protocol]].
