....is not new. Steele [29] had an early algorithm. Dijkstra, Lamport, et al. introduced on the fly collection [10] a form of concurrent mark and sweep. This was extended by Kung and Song [22] More recently, these ideas have been revisited for ML [11, 12] and for the Java programming language [14, 13]. Baker invented an incremental copying collector [5] which was implemented in hardware on Lisp machines [25] Ellis, Li, and Appel implemented this idea on stock hardware with a virtual memory based barrier, and added true concurrency [23] However, most of these have little relevance to the ....

....in an order that is consistent with theal8 cation order. But researchers have alN proposed more complS77 edcol9SI ors that may viol ate the promotion order; i.e. may promote l# er alN cated objects beforeearlSN alS cated objects. Concurrentcol48 #32IG for examp l# may exhibit this behavior [16]. We have extended our technique to work with these colG7S ors as fol4 ws. 6.1 The Algorithm We describe how our extension works in the context of a generational colG78 or that uses a remembered set of references to track references from objects in olSI generations to objects in younger ....

.... While numerous concurrent, multiprocessor garbage collectors for general purpose programming languages have been described in the literature [12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, 29, 30] the number that have been implemented is quite small and of these, only a few actually run on a multiprocessor [2, 12, 18, 16, 17, 27]. DeTreville s work on garbage collectors for Modula 2 on the DEC Firefly workstation [12] is the only comparative evaluation of multiprocessor garbage collection techniques. His algorithm is based on Rovner s reference counting collector [29] backed by a concurrent tracing collector for cyclic ....

....proportion of cyclic garbage is often small but varies greatly. The only measurements provided for VCGC were on a uniprocessor for SML NJ, so it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons. The only other concurrent, multiprocessor collector for Java that we know of is the work of Domani et al. [17]. This is a generational collector based on the work of Doligez et al. [16, 15] for which generations were shown to sometimes provide significant improvements in throughput. No response time measurements were provided. The other implemented concurrent multiprocessor collectors [2, 18, 16, 27] are ....

....an arbitrary number number of mutators. On the other hand the Doligez Gonthier algorithm has some properties including minimal synchronizations and no overheads on reads that makeitlikely to be practical on small multiprocessors. Domani et al. describe a generational version of the collector [11], but it has the same scalability issues as the original. Our replicating algorithm is loosely based on the replicating scheme of Nettles and O Toole [22] Beyond the basic idea of replication, however, there are few similarities. This is largely due to the fact that they do not consider multiple ....

A group at IBM Haifa has adapted this collector design, along with modifications to support generational collection, to the Java platform [14].
