Decoupled root scanning in multi-processor systems
Wolfgang Puffitsch · 2008
Garbage collection (GC) is a well known approach to simplify software development. Recently, it has started to gain acceptance also in the real-time community. Several hard real-time GC algorithms have been proposed for uniprocessors. However, the growing popularity of multi-processors for real-time systems entails that algorithms and techniques have to be developed that allow hard realtime GC on multi-processors as well.
