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...
Persistent programming languages manage volatile memory as a cache for stable storage, imposing a read barrier on operations that access the cache, and a write barrier on updates ...

The memory model used in the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) imposes strict assignment rules to or from memory areas preventing the creation of dangling pointers, and thus...
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 ...
