ABSTRACT
AliasJava is a type annotation system that extends Java to express how data is confined within, passed among, or shared between objects in a software system. We present an implementation of the AliasJava system as Java 1.5 annotations and an analysis using the Eclipse infrastructure.

Recommendations
Bringing java's wild native world under control
For performance and for incorporating legacy libraries, many Java applications contain native-code components written in unsafe languages such as C and C++. Native-code components interoperate with Java components through the Java Native Interface (JNI)...
Ownership and immutability in generic Java
OOPSLA '10The Java language lacks the important notions of ownership (an object owns its representation to prevent unwanted aliasing) and immutability (the division into mutable, immutable, and readonly data and references). Programmers are prone to design errors,...
Inferring aliasing and encapsulation properties for java
OOPSLA '07: Proceedings of the 22nd annual ACM SIGPLAN conference on Object-oriented programming systems, languages and applicationsThere are many proposals for language techniques to control aliasing and encapsulation in object oriented programs, typically based on notions of object ownership and pointer uniqueness. Most of these systems require extensive manual annotations, and ...
