Poorly-written Swing applications can appear to freeze when time-consuming code is executing. These applications frequently fail to provide their users with feedback on the code's execution state. In the worst case, end users will wonder if the application is working correctly.

SwingWorker is cool but hardly new. I used it in 2002 for my PhD software. I think this article should also be listed as Multithreading because that's what SwingWorker does in standard Comp Sci language.
