Kotlin
coroutines

Introducción

Coroutine simple que demora 1 segundo pero no bloquea.

(del documento oficial)

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    launch(CommonPool) { // create new coroutine in common thread pool
        delay(1000L) // non-blocking delay for 1 second (default time unit is ms)
        println("World!") // print after delay
    }
    println("Hello,") // main function continues while coroutine is delayed
    Thread.sleep(2000L) // block main thread for 2 seconds to keep JVM alive
}

resultado

Hello,
World!
