jamod is an object oriented implementation of the S-Bus protocol, realized 100% in Java. It allows to quickly realize master and slave applications in various transport flavors (IP and serial).
The newest version!

/**
 * A simple non-reentrant mutual exclusion lock.
 * The lock is free upon construction. Each acquire gets the
 * lock, and each release frees it. Releasing a lock that
 * is already free has no effect.
 * 
 * This implementation makes no attempt to provide any fairness
 * or ordering guarantees. If you need them, consider using one of
 * the Semaphore implementations as a locking mechanism.
 * 
 * Sample usage

 * 
 * Mutex can be useful in constructions that cannot be
 * expressed using java synchronized blocks because the
 * acquire/release pairs do not occur in the same method or
 * code block. For example, you can use them for hand-over-hand
 * locking across the nodes of a linked list. This allows
 * extremely fine-grained locking, and so increases
 * potential concurrency, at the cost of additional complexity and
 * overhead that would normally make this worthwhile only in cases of
 * extreme contention.
 *
 * 
 * class Node {
 * Object item;
 * Node next;
 * Mutex lock = new Mutex(); // each node keeps its own lock
 * 
 * Node(Object x, Node n) { item = x; next = n; }
 * }
 * 
 * class List {
 * protected Node head; // pointer to first node of list
 * 
 * // Use plain java synchronization to protect head field.
 * // (We could instead use a Mutex here too but there is no
 * // reason to do so.)
 * protected synchronized Node getHead() { return head; }
 * 
 * boolean search(Object x) throws InterruptedException {
 * Node p = getHead();
 * if (p == null) return false;
 * 
 * // (This could be made more compact, but for clarity of illustration,
 * // all of the cases that can arise are handled separately.)
 * 
 * p.lock.acquire(); // Prime loop by acquiring first lock.
 * // (If the acquire fails due to
 * // interrupt, the method will throw
 * // InterruptedException now,
 * // so there is no need for any
 * // further cleanup.)
 * for (;;) {
 * if (x.equals(p.item)) {
 * p.lock.release(); // release current before return
 * return true;
 * }
 * else {
 * Node nextp = p.next;
 * if (nextp == null) {
 * p.lock.release(); // release final lock that was held
 * return false;
 * }
 * else {
 * try {
 * nextp.lock.acquire(); // get next lock before releasing current
 * }
 * catch (InterruptedException ex) {
 * p.lock.release(); // also release current if acquire fails
 * throw ex;
 * }
 * p.lock.release(); // release old lock now that new one held
 * p = nextp;
 * }
 * }
 * }
 * }
 * 
 * synchronized void add(Object x) { // simple prepend
 * // The use of `synchronized' here protects only head field.
 * // The method does not need to wait out other traversers
 * // who have already made it past head.
 * 
 * head = new Node(x, head);
 * }
 * 
 * // ... other similar traversal and update methods ...
 * }
