Abstract
I’ll present an outline of a verification proof for a copying garbage collector. Unlike published proofs of copying collectors, this verification proof is structured to aid proof reuse: it is not tied to a specific programming logic and keeps as much as possible simple and separate from the low-level details (such as how heap cells are represented in machine memory). I’ll end the talks with a few comments on how this copying collector might aid verification of a generational copying collector.
