Concurrent and incremental collectors require barriers to ensure correct synchronisation between mutator and collector. The overheads imposed by particular barriers on particular ...

The contribution of this paper is twofold. First a distributed garbage collector (DGC) is presented that is optimized for remote method invocation in reliable networks, such as cu...
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...

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 ...
