Hi,

I find the discussions in this group very interesting, especially those that 
deal with collectors for C/C++. However, some of the terms like "conservative
collectors" are new for me. I've dealt with GC only for "pointerless" languages like
Smalltalk (Reference counting, Baker semispaces, generation scavenging) until now.
Could you point me to appropriate literature/web pages? 
Where can I find more information about the Boehm/Weiser collector?

Thanks,
Tom
