ALI group at UMass
Group at UMass that includes the Object Systems Laboratory, an active memory management research group.
Dmalloc
Malloc replacement with debugging features.
A garbage collector for C/C++ (Hans Boehm)
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.
The GC-LIST FAQ
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".
The Hoard Multiprocessor Memory Allocator
Hoard is a fast, scalable and memory-efficient malloc-replacement for multithreaded applications on multiprocessors. Widely-used, open-source.
IDH
A debug heap for *nix. Captures buffer overwrites, memory leaks, stale pointers, most buffer underflows, and can provide statistics on block sizes.
Inuse
A graphical utility that allows you to watch a program allocate and free dynamic memory blocks, increasing your understanding of memory.
Lightwave Memory Manager
A higher performance replacement for malloc/new in C/C++ with multi-threaded/multi-processor support.
A Memory Allocator
Article by Doug Lea about the design of his well-known "Lea" memory allocator.
The Memory Management Reference
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.
OOPS Group Publications
Papers from Paul Wilson's research group at the University of Texas at Austin.
OOPSLA'97 GC and MM Workshop
Contains links to the papers presented at the 1997 OOPSLA Workshop on Garbage Collection and Memory Management.
Parallel and Distributed Garbage Collectors
A parallel and distributed extension of the BDW conservative collector.
Richard Jones' Garbage Collection Page
Richard Jones wrote Garbage Collection: Algorithms for Automatic Dynamic Memory Management", the first English book concerned solely with garbage collection. Garbage collection page has an FAQ, and a large bibliography.
Wolfram Gloger's malloc homepage
Links to ptmalloc, a multithreaded-variant of Doug Lea's memory allocator.
