Experience with safe manual memory-management in cyclone

In general, by supporting safe manual memory management, Cyclone is able to significantly reduce space overheads present in garbage-collected languages [25]. There is . The goal of the Cyclone project is to investigate type safety for low-level languages such as C. Our most difficult challenge has been providing programmers control over memory management while retaining type safety. This paper reports on our experience trying to integrate and effectively use two previously proposed, type-safe memory management mechanisms: . Safe Manual Memory Management in Cyclone Nikhil Swamy, Michael Hicks, Greg Morrisett, Dan Grossman and Trevor Jim Abstract The goal of the Cyclone project is to investigate how to make a low-level C-like language safe. Our most difficult challenge has been providing programmers control over mem-ory management while retaining safety.

This paper reports on our experience trying to integrate and effectively use two previously proposed, type-safe memory management mechanisms: statically-scoped regions and unique pointers. We found that these typing mechanisms can be combined to build alternative memory-management abstractions, such as reference counted objects and arenas with.
