....This object tracing method is generated automatically for each user defined datatype by the datatype compiler. The collectors can discover the current root set by scanning the stack, registers, static data and heap areas. Thus no root registration or inefficient smart pointer schemes[Ede92] are necessary: a pointer to a collectable object looks the same as any other pointers and can be placed inside machines registers or otherwise optimized by the compiler in the same manner. By detaching the traversal method from the specific implementation of the garbage collectors, we are able ....
