Actually it is quite disappointing to read this paper.
The problems they mention and run into, have already been examined and dealt with in embedded Schemes, such as BIT, PICBIT and PICOBIT.
PICBIT http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~feeley/papers/FeeleyDubeSW03.pdf http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~feeley/papers/FeeleyDubeSW03.pd... (see the GC section)
PICOBIT http://users.eecs.northwestern.edu/~stamourv/papers/picobit.pdf http://users.eecs.northwestern.edu/~stamourv/papers/picobit.... (not as relevant in that hard decisions/tradeoffs examined in predecessor PICBIT)
BIT (1995) https://github.com/melvinzhang/bit-scheme https://github.com/melvinzhang/bit-scheme
- nickpsecurity 10y agoI'm upvoting it only because the links might interest embedded developers. You're comment might be missing the point, though, where they're leveraging Rust for it's safety that requires no GC with its CPU or memory overhead. Non-determinism, too, unless using a real-time GC.
