Bertrand Delsart's RTSJ WebLog: Real-Time Java related weblog

Sorry, I was supposed to come back and tell you more about ScopedMemory and RTGC. A lot of things happened and it seems I missed the deadline

The good news is that I have been very busy working on a new real-time garbage collection technology. The results have exceeded our expectations. I've not yet published papers about it but you can find a lot of information in a few presentations.

The best reference was the technical session TS2901 given during JavaOne'07. You can easily access the slides. If you are curious, you can also listen to me speaking in english

If you are French, you might prefer a presentation I gave during Sun's TechDays in Paris: http://java.developpez.tv/suntechdays2007/#vid14.

In addition, you can read the documentation of our Java RTS product to find even more information about the RTGC. This documentation is still an ongoing work. Please provide your feedback, I'll try to answer any question in my blog... and in future documents.

Thanks to these achievements, ScopedMemory should be used only by customers that really have very high determinism requirements (a few tens of microseconds). This new RTGC is sufficient for most of our customers... and I'll probably focus on it in my next blogs.

Bertrand.
