This paper explores and quantifies garbage collection behavior for three whole heap collectors and generational counterparts: copying semi-space, mark-sweep, and reference counti...

Abstract. Generational collectors are well known as a tool for shortening pause times incurred by garbage collection and for improving garbage collection efficiency. In this paper,...
A new variant algorithm for distributed acyclic garbage detection is presented for use in hybrid garbage collectors. The existing fault-tolerance of Piquer's Indirect Referen...
We investigate reference counting in the context of a multithreaded architecture by exploiting two observations: (1) reference-counting can be performed by a transformed program s...
