ABSTRACT	We describe a memory management toolkit for language implementors. It offers efficient and flexible generation scavenging garbage collection. In addition to providing a core of languageindependent algorithms and data structures, the toolkit includes auxiliary components that ease implementation of garbage collection for programming languages. We have detailed designs for Smalltalk and Modula-3 and are confident the toolkit can be used with a wide variety of languages. The toolkit approach is itself novel, and our design includes a number of additional innovations in flexibility, efficiency, accuracy, and cooperation between the compiler and the collector. This project is supported by National Science Foundation Grant CCR-8658074, and by Digital Equipment Corporation, GTE Laboratories, and Apple Computer. 1 Introduction As part of an ongoing effort to implement Persistent Smalltalk and Persistent Modula-3, we have designed a high performance garbage collector toolkit that can be us...	user correction - Legacy Corrections
