We present a scalable garbage collection scheme for systems that store objects at multiple servers while clients run transactions on locally cached copies of objects. It is the fi...
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...
Abstract. Automatic storage management is important in highly parallel programming environments where large numbers of objects and processes are being constantly created and discar...

Garbage collection can be a performance bottleneck in large distributed, multi-threaded applications. Applications may produce millions of objects during their lifetimes and may i...
