Rodriguez-Rivera et al created one algorithm for doing this for Geodesic's Great Circle which is both non-moving and reduces fragmentation. Another method for doing this portions off half of the target at any one time and is known as Cheney's Algorithm. The generational type of this process relies on the infant mortality principle to focus on recently created objects. Incremental forms of this process have fewer performance repercussions than stop-the-world techniques, and several implementations use reference counting. A feature of managed languages, they help prevent bugs related to dangling pointers and can be implemented with a mark-and-sweep algorithm. For 10 points, name this process in computer science in which data no longer being used is reclaimed in memory.
