As an extension for #2 we need a chapter discussing more advanced garbage collection techniques such as:

  1. Moving objects and using forwarding pointers
  2. Parallel garbage collection (concurrent GC is an entirely different beast that I think we should leave out)
  3. Generational garbage collection
  4. Possibly more

For this chapter we probably want to focus on a specific algorithm such as Immix. I certainly wouldn't call Immix trivial, but it's not that hard either (the paper is just really really dense).
