A collection of papers on garbage collection, memory allocation, and the like from the OOPS Research Group at the University of Texas at Austin. Includes papers from the OOPSLA Workshops on Garbage Collection in 1990, 1991, and 1993.
Group at UMass that includes the Object Systems Laboratory, an active memory management research group.
A draft FAQ for the Garbage Collection mailing list. Contains a list of algorithms and techniques, related jargon, language interfaces, and challenging problems such as threading, distributed objects, persistency, and "uncooperative environments".
Hans Boehm's page on the widely used Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector for C/C++. The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be used as a garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It is also used by a number of programming language implementations that use C as intermediate code.
A graphical utility that allows you to watch a program allocate and free dynamic memory blocks, increasing your understanding of memory.
Contains links to the papers presented at the 1997 OOPSLA Workshop on Garbage Collection and Memory Management.
Papers from Paul Wilson's research group at the University of Texas at Austin.
A resource for programmers and computer scientists interested in memory management and garbage collection. Includes a fairly comprehensive bibliography of influential authors and papers in the field. Links to a glossary and a beginner's guide to the field.
Article by Doug Lea about the design of his well-known "Lea" memory allocator.
Conference focused on research in management of dynamically allocated memory.
