I saw this book announced recently:
GARBAGE COLLECTION: Algorithms for Automatic Dynamic Memory
Management, by Richard Jones
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, ISBN 0-471-94148-4, 403pg, USD 49.95
http://www.ukc.ac.uk/computer_science/Html/Jones/GC/gcbook.html
I want to know if this book covers areas and subjects not mentioned in
Paul Wilson's survey (ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/garbage/bigsurv.ps).
If I've digested Wilson's survey, should I bother buying this book?
I'd appreciate any responses from people that have bought/reviewed
this book.
Please reply by email, I'll summarize.
Thanks.
Anand.
