The performance of today's memory-hungry applications depends
on efficient dynamic memory management, whether managed explicitly through new/delete
or automatically by a garbage collector. With the increasing use of managed
code, whether Java Virtual Machines or Microsoft's Common Language Runtime,
the economic importance of automatic memory management has never been greater.
The Summer Schoool provides participants with an opportunity to hear leading practitioners from both industry and universities. The school is directed at postgraduate research students, academics who wish to get involved in this field and industrial researchers and developers who want to apply state of the art memory management techniques to real problems.
