public interface NotifiableInputFifoQueue<T>
extends FifoQueue<T>

This interface is implemented by FIFO queue implementations that can notify interested listener when elements are added to the queue. This is useful for listeners that may block or preform other work while a queue is empty, instead of using polling.
