What are the two phases of the Mark and Sweep algorithm?
Recall the steps in garbage collection.
What does the Mark phase do?
Think about what it means to 'mark' something in memory.
What is the first phase of the Mark and Sweep algorithm?
Think about what we do to identify objects.
True or False: The Sweep phase only removes marked objects.
Focus on what 'sweep' means in terms of cleaning up.
Describe how the Mark and Sweep algorithm would work in a scenario where multiple threads are creating and destroying objects. What complications could arise?
Consider the effects of concurrent programming on shared resources.
Analyze the performance impact of using Mark and Sweep in real-time applications. What modifications could be made to improve performance?
Think about strategies to minimize delays caused by garbage collection.
