We study the effectiveness of garbage collection (GC) algorithms by measuring the time difference between the actual collection time of an object and the potential earliest collec...
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 ...
Generational garbage collectors are able to achieve very small pause times by concentrating on the youngest (most recently allocated) objects when collecting, since objects have b...

In a generational garbage collector, a pre-tenured object is one that is allocated directly in the old generation. Pretenuring long-lived objects reduces the number of times that ...
With the current developments in CPU implementations, it becomes obvious that ever more parallel multicore systems will be used even in embedded controllers that require real-time...
