Concurrent Replicating Garbage Collection
We have implemented a concurrent copying garbage collector that uses replicatinggarbage collection. In our design, the client can continuously access the heap during garbage colle...

How to Use Vectors for Representing Ground Expressions in the Implementations of the Language Refal
Most implementations of the language Refal represent ground expressions by doubly-linked lists, which results in low-cost concatenation. On the other hand, that representation nece...

On the Effectiveness of GC in Java
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...

Clustering the heap in multi-threaded applications for improved garbage collection
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...

Lightweight Lexical Closures for Legitimate Execution Stack Access
We propose a new language concept called "L-closures" for a running program to legitimately inspect/modify the contents of its execution stack. L-closures are lightweight...
