Garbage Collecting the World: One Car at a Time
A new garbage collection algorithm for distributed object systems, called DMOS (Distributed Mature Object Space), is presented. It is derived from two previous algorithms, MOS (Ma...

Guaranteeing Non-Disruptiveness and Real-Time Deadlines in an Incremental Garbage Collector
For Garbage Collection (GC) to be a generally accepted means of memory management it is required to prove its efficiency. This paper presents a scheme that guarantees that an incr...

Sapphire: copying GC without stopping the world
Many concurrent garbage collection (GC) algorithms have been devised, but few have been implemented and evaluated, particularly for the Java programming language. Sapphire is an a...

Allocation-phase aware thread scheduling policies to improve garbage collection performance
Past studies have shown that objects are created and then die in phases. Thus, one way to sustain good garbage collection efficiency is to have a large enough heap to allow many ...

Quantifying the performance of garbage collection vs. explicit memory management
Garbage collection yields numerous software engineering benefits, but its quantitative impact on performance remains elusive. One can compare the cost of conservative garbage col...
