• You probably want to use a BlockingQueue.

This is the typical way to implement a producer-comsumer pattern: the producer will put() a string in the queue, the server/consumer will take() a string from the queue. If the queue is empty the server will block and wait, optionally with a timeout.

You probably don't need to bound the queue, so you could instantiate a LinkedBlockingQueue with its empty constructor.

All implementations of BlockingQueue are thread-safe, so you don't need additional synchronisation for their basic operations.
