The Case for Profile-Directed Selection of Garbage Collectors
Many garbage-collected systems use a single garbage collection algorithm across all applications. It has long been known that this can produce poor performance on applications for...

Age-Based Garbage Collection
Modern generational garbage collectors look for garbage among the young objects, because they have high mortality; however, these objects include the very youngest objects, which ...

Exploring the barrier to entry: incremental generational garbage collection for Haskell
We document the design and implementation of a “production” incremental garbage collector for GHC 6.2. It builds on our earlier work (Non-stop Haskell) that exploited GHC’s ...

Write barrier removal by static analysis
We present a new analysis for removing unnecessary write barriers in programs that use generational garbage collection. To our knowledge, this is the first static program analysis...

An On-the-Fly Reference Counting Garbage Collector for Java
Reference counting is not naturally suitable for running on multiprocessors. The update of pointers and reference counts requires atomic and synchronized operations. We present a ...
