Garbage collection in regions
… the references to these entities must be garbage collected. Depending on the purpose and design constraints of the region at hand, there can be many ways this can be implemented. Therefore, application designers must have the flexibility to implement a region design to incorporate a …

Garbage Collection for General Graphs
Garbage collection is moving from being a utility to a requirement of every modern programming language. With multi-core and distributed systems, most programs written recently are heavily multi-threaded and distributed. Distributed and multi-threaded programs are called concurrent programs. Manual …

Garbage collection of the PLAVA object store
… investigates the implementation of suitable garbage collection schemes for a persistent store. The store that formed the basis for these experiments was the one developed for a Java Virtual Machine known as PLaVa, designed by Stephan Tjasink at the University of Cape Town [Tja99]. Two garbage …

Page Pinning Improves Performance of Generational Garbage Collection
Garbage collection became widely used with the growing popularity of the Java programming language. For garbage-collected programs, memory latency is an important performance factor. Thus, a reduction in the cache miss rate will boost performance. In most programs, the majority of references are to …

High Performance Reference Counting and Conservative Garbage Collection
Garbage collection is an integral part of modern programming languages. It automatically reclaims memory occupied by objects that are no longer in use. Garbage collection began in 1960 with two algorithmic branches — tracing and reference counting. Tracing identifies live objects by performing a …

Garbage Collection Scheduling for Utility Accrual Real-Time Systems
… languages, such as Java, necessitates the use of garbage collection (GC). The timeliness requirements of real-time systems, however, impose specific demands on the garbage collector. Garbage collection introduces a significant source of unpredictability in the execution timeline of a task because …

Automatic, incremental, on-the-fly garbage collection of actors
Garbage collection is an important topic of research for operating systems, because applications are easier to write and maintain if they are unburdened by the concerns of storage management. The actor computation model is another important topic: it is a powerful, expressive model of concurrent …

Memory Management and Garbage Collection Algorithms for Java-Based Prolog
… memory management time for Jinni is made up of garbage collection time both for Java and Jinni itself. Extra space is usually requested at Jinni's garbage collection. This goal motivates us to find a simple and practical garbage collection algorithm and implementation for our Prolog engine. In …

Performance of a hierarchical distributed garbage collection algorithm in ActorFoundry
Automatic garbage collection is an essential feature so that programs can reclaim resources without the need for manual input. This feature is present in many modern languages and is a common subject of research. However, in parallel and distributed environments, programmer-controlled resource …

Assessing and Improving Garbage Collection Performance in the Julia Programming Language
… language for memory-intensive applications, garbage collection (GC) is becoming a performance bottleneck, with reports of poor GC performance ranging from differential equation solvers to large database benchmarks. There have been several GC optimizations (such as the implementation of a …

Effectivenesss of garbage collection by private companies: a case study of Lusaka
For many years, garbage collection services in Lusaka have been inadequate for a large city. In Lusaka, only, an estimated 15 per cent, of the municipal solid waste generated, is collected, resulting in a build-up of waste in open spaces and along streets in or around the city, (UN-HABITAT, 2007: …

Performance analysis of garbage collection and dynamic reordering in a Lisp system
Generation-based garbage collection and dynamic reordering of objects are two techniques for improving the efficiency of memory management in Lisp and similar dynamic language systems. An analysis of the effect of generation configuration is presented, focusing on the effect of the number of …

Sparsely faceted arrays : a mechanism supporting parallel allocation, communication, and garbage collection
… need for automatic memory management, including garbage collection. To address this need, I first argue that conventional tracing techniques such as mark/sweep and copying GC are inherently unscalable in parallel systems. I then present a parallel memory-management strategy, based on …
