multithreading

I need to call a number of methods in parallel and wait for results. Each relies on different resources, so they may return at different times. I need to wait until I receive all results or time out after a certain amount of time.

I could just spawn threads with a reference to a shared object via a method call, but is there a better, more groovy way to do this?
