From a real-time perspective, the Garbage Collector (GC) introduces unpredictable pauses that are not tolerated by real-time tasks. Real-time collectors eliminate this problem but...
Java's automatic memory management is the main reason that prevents Java from being used in hard realtime environments. We present the garbage collection mechanism that is us...
Real-time garbage collection is essential if object-oriented languages (in particular, Java) are to become predictable enough for real-time embedded systems. Although techniques f...
Reusable libraries are problematic for real-time software in Java. Using Java’s standard class library, for example, demands meticulous coding and testing to avoid response time...

One of the problems with Java for real-time systems is the unpredictable behavior of garbage collection (GC). GC introduces unexpected load and causes undesirable delays for real-...
