/**
 * An object with an operational state, plus asynchronous {@link #start()} and
 * {@link #stop()} lifecycle methods to transfer into and out of this state.
 * Example services include webservers, RPC servers and timers. The normal
 * lifecycle of a service is:
 * <ul>
 *   <li>{@link State#NEW} -&gt;</li>
 *   <li>{@link State#STARTING} -&gt;</li>
 *   <li>{@link State#RUNNING} -&gt;</li>
 *   <li>{@link State#STOPPING} -&gt;</li>
 *   <li>{@link State#TERMINATED}</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * If the service fails while starting, running or stopping, its state will be
 * {@link State#FAILED}, and its behavior is undefined. Such a service cannot be
 * started nor stopped.
 *
 * <p>Implementors of this interface are strongly encouraged to extend one of 
 * the abstract classes in this package which implement this interface and 
 * make the threading and state management easier.
