Collecting More Garbage
We present a method, adapted to polymorphically typed functional languages, to detect and collect more garbage than existing GCs. It can be applied to strict or lazy higher order ...

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...

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...

Optimal Asynchronous Garbage Collection for RDT Checkpointing Protocols
Communication-induced checkpointing protocols that ensure rollback-dependency trackability (RDT) guarantee important properties to the recovery system without explicit coordinatio...

On the Type Accuracy of Garbage Collection
We describe a novel approach to obtaining type-accurate information for garbage collection in a hardware and language independent way. Our approach uses a run-time analysis to pro...
