java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.44.0.jar -role hub

Answer 1

You can try below code

 Process process  = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start cmd.exe /K java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.44.0.jar -role hub");

However this will run executable jar from your current directory, where you .class file exist.
