I'm looking for some info on asynchronous method calls in Java, sorta like the .NET Asynchronous Programming Model. I know you could do it manually by creating a thread and spinning off work (and maybe using a Future<> and an Executor) but that's annoying and cumbersome and in the case of asynchronous I/O, fairly wasteful if you could do it directly to the hardware instead of spinning up a new thread to do it. I'm finding surprisingly little via Google and Sun's site (though maybe I'm just missing something).
