A CyclicBarrier is a synchronization aid allowing threads to wait for each other to reach a common barrier point, enabling coordinated proceed after synchronization.
CyclicBarrier offers flexibility in multi-threading; it resets after releasing threads, making it reusable, useful for phases in parallel algorithms or batch processing.
The barrier can execute an optional barrier action when all threads reach it, adding an extra layer of functionality to manage thread execution post-synchronization.
By design, CyclicBarrier's operation involves initializing it with a number of parties, where threads await, are released collectively, and then the barrier resets for reuse.
