A talk was given by Jean-Pierre Rosen at Fosdem 2016. Dynamic memory management has always been a source of trouble, and garbage collection is just a way to overcome the lack of proper memory management in many languages. This presentation shows how Ada addresses this issue in several original ways: first by requiring much less dynamic memory than other languages, and then by providing powerful tools for controlling allocation and deallocation when it is necessary. Note that Ada has since gained the ability to provide heap de-allocation safety and memory leak prevention through Sparks borrow analysis. Some references are made to slides but for the most part, this presentation works perfectly fine without video. Video version: https://archive.fosdem.org/2016/schedule/event/ada_memory/
