So I guess there is no "right answer" here -- a realistic
solution would offer two GC options, maybe set by an option to
the RTS or on a per-thread level.
I guess your work was specifically on garbage collection of
functional languages in embedded systems?

Also there is the "Non-stop Haskell" paper.

Both of these papers are from some time ago; the most recent
thing I can find is:
