A Compacting Garbage Collector for Unidirectional Heaps
A unidirectional heap is a heap where all pointers go in one direction, e.g. from newer to older objects. For a strict functional language, such as Erlang, the heap may be arranged...

The mapping collector: virtual memory support for generational, parallel, and concurrent compaction
Parallel and concurrent garbage collectors are increasingly employed by managed runtime environments (MREs) to maintain scalability, as multi-core architectures and multi-threaded...

The Compressor: concurrent, incremental, and parallel compaction
The widely used Mark-and-Sweep garbage collector has a drawback in that it does not move objects during collection. As a result, large long-running realistic applications, such as...
