A page fault equation for dynamic heap sizing
For garbage-collected applications, dynamically-allocated objects are contained in a heap. Programmer productivity improves significantly if there is a garbage collector to autom...

Segregating Heap Objects by Reference Behavior and Lifetime
Dynamic storage allocation has become increasingly important in many applications, in part due to the use of the object-oriented paradigm. At the same time, processor speeds are i...

Waste not, want not: resource-based garbage collection in a shared environment
To achieve optimal performance, garbage-collected applications must balance the sizes of their heaps dynamically. Sizing the heap too small can reduce throughput by increasing the...

Realisation of a Dynamically Grouped Object-Oriented Virtual Memory Hierarchy
Conventional paging systems do not perform well with large object-oriented environments (such as Smalltalk-801 [GR83]) due to the fine granularity of objects and the persistence o...
