java.lang.ThreadGroup (JDK 1.0)

This class defines a group of threads and allows operations on the group as a whole. A ThreadGroup may contain Thread objects, as well as "child" ThreadGroup objects. All ThreadGroup objects are created as children of some other ThreadGroup, and thus there is a parent/child hierarchy of ThreadGroup objects.

Some programs may find it convenient to define their own ThreadGroup, but generally thread groups are only used by system-level applications.
