This paper describes a type system that is capable of expressing and enforcing immutability constraints. The speonstraint expressed is that the abstract state of the object to whi...
Can virtual machine developers benefit from religiously observing the principles more often embraced for exploratory programming? To find out, we are concurrently constructing two...
Tracing garbage collectors traverse references from live program variables, transitively tracing out the closure of live objects. Memory accesses incurred during tracing are essen...
