Memory Management de Yves Bekkers

Memory Management

Yves Bekkers

Jacques Cohen

This is the first book entirely dedicated to the problem ofmemory management in programming language implementation.Its originality stems from the diversity of languages andapproaches presented: functional programming, logicprogramming, object oriented programming, and parallel andsequential programming.The book contains 29 selected and refereed papers including3 survey papers, 4 on distributed systems, 4 on parallelism,4 on functional languages, 3 on logic programming languages,3 on object oriented languages, 3 on incremental garbagecollection, 2 on improving locality, 2 on massively parallelarchitectures, and an invited paper on the thermodynamics ofgarbage collection.The book provides a snapshot of the latest research in thedomain of memory management for high-level programminglanguage implementations.
