I just did a quick search, not sure about the quality, but there are some good results for the following areas: - Garbage collection - Modula-3 - Oberon - Mesa/Cedar - Singularity So programming languages that overlap with D's goals, system languages with GC having being used on graphical workstation OS research, and the always discussed subject of using a GC in systems languages. -- Paulo

I haven't had the chance to read the whole paper, but from reading the abstract, it looks very strongly related to your work on live: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1007/978-3-642-11957-6_29 Direct download link: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2F978-3-642-11957-6_29.pdf

Thank you. Abstract is: Stateful Contracts for Affine Types∗ Jesse A. Tov and Riccardo Pucella Northeastern University, Boston, MA 02115, USA {tov,riccardo} ccs.neu.edu Abstract. Affine type systems manage resources by preventing some values from being used more than once. This offers expressiveness and performance benefits, but difficulty arises in interacting with components written in a conventional language whose type system provides no way to maintain the affine type system’s aliasing invariants. We propose and implement a technique that uses behavioral contracts to mediate between code written in an affine language and code in a conventional typed language. We formalize our approach via a typed calculus with both affine-typed and conventionally-typed modules. We show how to preserve the guarantees of both type systems despite both languages being able to call into each other and exchange higher-order values.
