There are a huge amount of tasks. Each task is belong to a single group. The requirement is each group of tasks should executed serially just like executed in a single thread an

    I mostly agree on Dave's answer, but if you need to slice CPU time across all "groups", i.e. all task groups should progress in parallel, you might find this kind of construct useful (using removal as "lock". This worked fine in my case although I imagine it tends to use more memory):

    class TaskAllocator {
        private final ConcurrentLinkedQueue<Queue<Runnable>> entireWork
             = childQueuePerTaskGroup();
    
        public Queue<Runnable> lockTaskGroup(){
            return entireWork.poll();
        }
    
        public void release(Queue<Runnable> taskGroup){
            entireWork.offer(taskGroup);
        }
     }
    

    and

     class DoWork implmements Runnable {
         private final TaskAllocator allocator;
    
         public DoWork(TaskAllocator allocator){
             this.allocator = allocator;
         }
    
         pubic void run(){
            for(;;){
                Queue<Runnable> taskGroup = allocator.lockTaskGroup();
                if(task==null){
                    //No more work
                    return;
                }
                Runnable work = taskGroup.poll();
                if(work == null){
                    //This group is done
                    continue;
                }
    
                //Do work, but never forget to release the group to 
                // the allocator.
                try {
                    work.run();
                } finally {
                    allocator.release(taskGroup);
                }
            }//for
         }
     }
    

    You can then use optimum number of threads to run the DoWork task. It's kind of a round robin load balance..

    You can even do something more sophisticated, by using this instead of a simple queue in TaskAllocator (task groups with more task remaining tend to get executed)

    ConcurrentSkipListSet<MyQueue<Runnable>> sophisticatedQueue = 
        new ConcurrentSkipListSet(new SophisticatedComparator());
    

    where SophisticatedComparator is

    class SophisticatedComparator implements Comparator<MyQueue<Runnable>> {
        public int compare(MyQueue<Runnable> o1, MyQueue<Runnable> o2){
            int diff = o2.size() - o1.size();
            if(diff==0){
                 //This is crucial. You must assign unique ids to your 
                 //Subqueue and break the equality if they happen to have same size.
                 //Otherwise your queues will disappear...
                 return o1.id - o2.id;
            }
            return diff;
        }
     }

    I would suggest to use task queues:

    • For every group of tasks You have create a queue and insert all tasks from that group into it.
    • Now all Your queues can be executed in parallel while the tasks inside one queue are executed serially.

    A quick google search suggests that the java api has no task / thread queues by itself. However there are many tutorials available on coding one. Everyone feel free to list good tutorials / implementations if You know some:

    A simple approach would be to "concatenate" all group tasks into one super task, thus making the sub-tasks run serially. But this will probably cause delay in other groups that will not start unless some other group completely finishes and makes some space in the thread pool.

    As an alternative, consider chaining a group's tasks. The following code illustrates it:

    public class MultiSerialExecutor {
        private final ExecutorService executor;
    
        public MultiSerialExecutor(int maxNumThreads) {
            executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(maxNumThreads);
        }
    
        public void addTaskSequence(List<Runnable> tasks) {
            executor.execute(new TaskChain(tasks));
        }
    
        private void shutdown() {
            executor.shutdown();
        }
    
        private class TaskChain implements Runnable {
            private List<Runnable> seq;
            private int ind;
    
            public TaskChain(List<Runnable> seq) {
                this.seq = seq;
            }
    
            @Override
            public void run() {
                seq.get(ind++).run(); //NOTE: No special error handling
                if (ind < seq.size())
                    executor.execute(this);
            }       
        }
    

    The advantage is that no extra resource (thread/queue) is being used, and that the granularity of tasks is better than the one in the naive approach. The disadvantage is that all group's tasks should be known in advance.

    --edit--

    To make this solution generic and complete, you may want to decide on error handling (i.e whether a chain continues even if an error occures), and also it would be a good idea to implement ExecutorService, and delegate all calls to the underlying executor.

    Actor is also another solution for this specified type of issues. Scala has actors and also Java, which provided by AKKA.

    I had a problem similar to your, and I used an ExecutorCompletionService that works with an Executor to complete collections of tasks. Here is an extract from java.util.concurrent API, since Java7:

    Suppose you have a set of solvers for a certain problem, each returning a value of some type Result, and would like to run them concurrently, processing the results of each of them that return a non-null value, in some method use(Result r). You could write this as:

    void solve(Executor e, Collection<Callable<Result>> solvers)
            throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException {
        CompletionService<Result> ecs = new ExecutorCompletionService<Result>(e);
        for (Callable<Result> s : solvers)
            ecs.submit(s);
        int n = solvers.size();
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            Result r = ecs.take().get();
            if (r != null)
                use(r);
        }
    }
    

    So, in your scenario, every task will be a single Callable<Result>, and tasks will be grouped in a Collection<Callable<Result>>.
