Now that the use of garbage collection in languages like Java is becoming widely accepted due to the safety and software engineering benefits it provides, there is significant int...
: Weak References constitute an elegant mechanism for an application to interact with its garbage collector. In most of its typical uses, weak references are used through weak tabl...
Abstract. While real-time garbage collection is now available in production virtual machines, the lack of generational capability means applications with high allocation rates are ...

Concurrent garbage collectors require write barriers to preserve consistency, but these barriers impose significant direct and indirect costs. While there has been a lot of work ...
It is shown that the terminationdetection problem for distributed computations can be modeled as an instance of the garbage collection problem. Consequently, algorithms for the te...
