Next Generation Garbage Collection: Discovery, Design, and Development

    Project: Research

    Project Details

    Description

    This project aims to improve the performance of programming languages used by millions of Australians every day, such as Java, and PHP. These languages use garbage collection to ensure memory is managed safely, but do so inefficiently and consequently suffer performance challenges and energy overheads. This project's goal is to: a) provide these languages with improved memory-management algorithms, and b) provide researchers and industry with a framework for innovation. This will enable safe software that is more efficient on today's hardware and able to exploit emerging hardware leading to better performance and energy savings for server applications, phones, watches, and smart appliances, whilst ensuring memory safety.
