Abstract: Many heap-oriented languages such as Lisp and Id depend on run-time garbage collection to reclaim storage. Garbage collection can be a significant run-time expense, especially for functional languages that tend to allocate structures often. Compiler-directed storage reclamation reduces the run-time overhead of garbage collection by having the compiler insert deallocation code. Compilers must perform object lifetime analysis in order to insert storage reclamation code. Current approaches to... (Update)

...to the first order case is efficient. Moreover, this work also assumes a fixed order of evaluation of expressions. James Hicks [13] derives the lifetime information of objects in Id, a parallel single assignment language developed at MIT [16] Lifetime information is...
...because of a lack of time and resources. In a production Id system, garbage collection or some other form of automatic memory management [44] would be necessary to avoid running out of heap memory. Our system currently places this burden on the programmer, which is both...
