Effective interprocedural resource leak detection

Abstract

Garbage collection relieves programmers from the burden of explicit memory management. However, explicit management is still required for finite system resources, such as I/O streams, fonts, and database connections. Failure to release unneeded system resources results in resource leaks, which can lead to performance degradation and system crashes.
