Transformation of Active Reference Graph into Passive Reference Graph for Distributed Garbage Collection

With the increasing use of active object systems, agents and concurrent object oriented languages like Java, the problem of garbage collection of unused resources has become more complicated. Since Active objects are standalone computational agents identifying garbage in active objects system cannot be based on reachability from a root set (which we use for passive objects). We have to go for separate algorithm to collect garbage on system which uses active objects. For the systems which use both active and passive objects we have to use 2 separate methods for collecting garbage. To avoid this we can use a transformation algorithm that can transfer active object reference graph into passive object reference graph, after which we can apply the passive object algorithm to collect garbage from the entire system. An attempt is made to travel through the transformation algorithms.
