Honestly, Ruby is a great language, but the GC in Ruby isn't exactly the 8th
wonder of the world, if you catch my drift.
The upside to studying Ruby's GC is that it is a GC used in the real world.
The down side is that there is a lot of room for improvement in this space.
Maybe someone who has worked on the GC can speak more to this?

So you intend to write a VM which allows the user to specify where in memory
they want to place objects?
Will this VM be writing it's memory allocation pools to random access
memory?

Which operating system are you planning to make this work on?
This will be an incredible feat if you are able to pull this off on anything
outside of a highly modified Linux kernel.

What do you mean by the compiler will be a short one?
Ruby is a dynamic language. Due to this, the compilation process works a
little different than in a static language such as c.

I would highly recommend that dragon book I linked to earlier.
Most decent university libraries should have a copy of this book.

If you don't mind me asking, I am assuming that you are a student at a
university in India?
Is this correct?
I ask this only because it is an assumption that keeps coming up in my mind.
If I am wrong, please let me know.

You certainly have your work cut of for you.
