维基百科解释的信号量概念如下
信号量(英语:semaphore)又称为信号标,是一个同步对象,用于保持在0至指定最大值之间的一个计数值。当线程完成一次对该semaphore对象的等待(wait)时,该计数值减一;当线程完成一次对semaphore对象的释放(release)时,计数值加一。当计数值为0,则线程等待该semaphore对象不再能成功直至该semaphore对象变成signaled状态。semaphore对象的计数值大于0,为signaled状态;计数值等于0,为nonsignaled状态.
semaphore对象适用于控制一个仅支持有限个用户的共享资源,是一种不需要使用忙碌等待(busy waiting)的方法。
信号量的概念是由荷兰计算机科学家艾兹赫尔·戴克斯特拉(Edsger W. Dijkstra)发明的,广泛的应用于不同的操作系统中。在系统中,给予每一个行程一个信号量,代表每个行程目前的状态,未得到控制权的行程会在特定地方被强迫停下来,等待可以继续进行的讯号到来。如果信号量是一个任意的整数,通常被称为计数讯号量(Counting semaphore),或一般讯号量(general semaphore);如果信号量只有二进位的0或1,称为二进位讯号量(binary semaphore)。在linux系统中,二进位讯号量(binary semaphore)又称互斥锁(Mutex)。

它有两个构造,单一参数的是构造一出一个不公平锁的信号量类,两个参数的第一个参数是指定信号数,第二个是是否使用公平锁。关于详细的介绍查看Java并发之Semaphore
它的简单使用如下
定义一个信号量对象semaphore,在线程执行之前通过semaphore.acquire()进行信号量的获取,如果得到permit信号当前线程就会执行,否则当前线程不会被执行,线程执行之后一定要release()释放信号。
当初始化的信号量是0时,可以通过当前信号量的对象调用release(int a)放入两个信号量。
