Relational profiling: enabling thread-level parallelism in virtual machines
Virtual machine service threads can perform many tasks in parallel with program execution such as garbage collection, dynamic compilation, and profile collection and analysis. Har...

Derivation and Evaluation of Concurrent Collectors
There are many algorithms for concurrent garbage collection, but they are complex to describe, verify, and implement. This has resulted in a poor understanding of the relationships...

Correctness-preserving derivation of concurrent garbage collection algorithms
Constructing correct concurrent garbage collection algorithms is notoriously hard. Numerous such algorithms have been proposed, implemented, and deployed – and yet the relations...
