- Google Gson (Utility)
A Java serialization/deserialization library to convert Java Objects into JSON and back.

- Java NIO (Utility)
a collection of Java programming language APIs that offer features for intensive I/O operations.
- JavaX Dependency Injection (Utility)
specifies a means for obtaining objects in such a way as to maximize reusability, testability and maintainability compared to traditional approaches such as constructors, factories, and service locators (e.g., JNDI). This process, known as dependency injection, is beneficial to most nontrivial applications.
