Efficiently and precisely locating memory leaks and bloat
Inefficient use of memory, including leaks and bloat, remain a significant challenge for C and C++ developers. Applications with these problems become slower over time as their wo...

Context- and path-sensitive memory leak detection
We present a context- and path-sensitive algorithm for detecting memory leaks in programs with explicit memory management. Our leak detection algorithm is based on an underlying e...

Region-based shape analysis with tracked locations
This paper proposes a novel approach to shape analysis: using local reasoning about individual heap locations of global reasoning about entire heap abstractions. We present an int...

Light-weight context recovery for efficient and accurate program analyses
To compute accurate information efficiently for programs that use pointer variables, a program analysis must account for the fact that a procedure may access different sets of mem...

An Effect System Combining Alias and Liveness for Explicit Memory Reuse
The garbage collection is a safe and efficient method for managing the heap. However it is not efficient for temporary storages that are allocated often and deallocated quickly. R...
